IMPORTANT - Changes at the blonde Cardroom.

[Woodsey]

Anyone that has a significant sum on blonde could 'lose' it to a reputable blonde on another site..........

[SirPerceval]

Will the SAS scheme be effected by this?

Sorry if this has already been addressed above, only scanned the thread and about to go back to the start as my head hurts trying to make any sense of it.

Not sure if this has been posted above...

If flushy really wanted his money out in one go couldnt he just 'lose it all' to one of his mates who is on another skin and just get it in a bulk sum that way?

Also if someone won big in one of the ECOOP off blonde then there might be no chance to cash out?

I'm confused by that. What money? (serious question). I'm not aware he has large sums deposited on blonde Cardroom, in fact I'm sure he has not.

think he's talking about flushys mate the winning cash player

In a word, Yes.

I will be writing to the guys who are already on the scheme tonight.

Possibly/presumably/hope so, but that's not what he said.

To be honest, all therse "dump off" theories are all well & good until anti-collusion detects them & confinscates the proceeds - & they might.

We 100% suggest NOBODY DOES THAT. Do so at your own risk & peril if you do.

...bit hopefully reinstated if/when we transfer to another Network/Site.

ipoker do not want their cash rooms full of rakeback grinders and professionals.

Which makes sense when you look at the big picture. Ie new, amateur players are the lifeblood of the network, if they stumble across a 6 max cash game with 5 professional sharks, they are going broke, usually very quickly, in a maximum of 4 weeks, possibly never to return to the game, which is devastating for the long term growth of the network

on the other side of the coin, you have smaller sites, strugglng to make ends meet, paying under the counter rakeback deals in excess of 50% with the sole reason of attracting the same players that ipoker does not want, the high volume pros

the result being an unavoidable collision beween site owners and struggling smaller ipoker skins

unfortunately i cant see any compromise, the industry is not growing anymore, ipoker is continuing to clamp down on what they perceive to be the the parasites of game, and smaller skins have no other viable routes to make a living

ipoker wants the smaller sites out, they have the legals all tied up, it looks like game over im afraid

What happens if there's an overlay in a tourney? Do the skins cover it or ipoker?

[EvilPie]

I heard this morning from an impeccable sourcer that one Skin (NOT on i-Poker) gets a Monthly Bonus because it has, in aggregate, losing players.

It pays to lose appasrently.

So if we could send all our players busto, we'd be just fine. And we are having a jolly good try.

Try harder Tikay.

I'd suggest you start by spending more time on PHA.

Overlays on guaranteed comps are shared between skins on a % basis which is bloody complicated, but for skins such as ours the cost is relatively small.


Other things like the Omaha rake races and other promos are a cost to the skin, again it is on a % basis, most of these we try to participate in.

Pfft! I may have been away, but I can still spot a wind-up.

No worries. I do NOT recommend he tries that though.
