Banned from full tilt as I let someone else ( a good mate ) use my account as he was an illegal and just wanted to play.

Have self excluded from 1 casino before the card room manager banned me. Wish I had held on a bit as he was found out to be skimming only a few weeks later. But that was years ago and is obv up now.

Banned from playing poker in the local Riley's but am allowed in for pool etc. Basically when it first started doing poker 1 or 2 people had been to hull and told em £10 rebuys were the way to go on. First week was all fine and dandy as I went out early so just ended up playing pool for money. Then the trouble started when I made 12 final tables on the bounce and it was starting to piss people off. I was sat on the 12th final in 12 weeks  and and the prizepool was usually about £1200-1400 and I was averaging about £200 a week from it.
I moved all in for 7000 and get 1 caller for 6000. Naturally I take 1k back and as they are dealing he flop one joker shouts out "wait a minute that ***** cheating. One minute he is all in and the next minute he has got an extra 1k from somewhere". I was used to handling these situations as I in previous weeks I have had to explain other technicalities in the game such as a straight does not beat a flush and its defo not a split pot if two guys have a flush. Some big meathead who I did not know then started saying poker was all luck. My mates were pissing themselves at the sticky predicament I was now in and I could see it was about to kick off. The final nail in the coffin was when of my mates looked me straight in the face, winks and shouts "that Herbert is a cheating *****, when do you ever see him with bad cards." That was it "yeah he always plays good cards. I bet he pays the dealers". At this the meathead turns the table over and come straight for me. Luckily one of the local nut jobs ironed him out with one punch and it all died down. After that the management asked me not to play again.

Oh just realised I have a life ban from a snooker club in Scunny ( the one Ulliot writes about in his book ) when my mate bought it and at the official opening 6 days later he had managed to get all his first weeks takings into a pot playing 3 card brag. I never even won the hand but coz I could not stop myself laughing at the grief his wife was giving him he took it all out on me

I am turning into one of those old boys that I used to love listening to when I first started playing. Heard so many stories of pubs/ betting shops/ homes changing hands over gambling. Been told off a couple of times for mentioning names on here and had to delete posts quickly

i only know of the Chinese kids who frequent the hull casinos 7 nights a week. They all live up and off Beverley road and were a decent close knit group of guys. Sadly living in each others pockets they slowly started to fall out and gone there seperate ways. Billy, Jimmy, Frankie all went back to china these passed 12 months. Kim, Cam n Pan still will be in there most nights. Intrigued to know what went on with the Chinese guy in Beverly so will find out.

It's quite amazing that you can walk into most Casinos and see the same faces that frequented the establishment 5/ 10 years ago. Don't matter if its hull Leeds Bradford Manchester or Liverpool you will find the same hand full of people.

why should new owners be liable for the (over generous?) arrangements of the old crew?

Not good for those currently tracked, but it can't be a surprise can it?

[redsimon]

Hadn't they already said rakeback deals no longer going to be used on "new FTP" anyway?

PS gave a free $50 bankroll to members on full tilt, there are over 485,000 members on full tilt tracked.. Added liquidity gone?

The possibility of a monoploy is v v scary, zynga+party wan time?

It's an offshore industry, largely unregulated. That market share and market dominance would come under anti-trust legislation in the majority of worldwide industries, but obviously not here

Of course they are going to exploit that, and the margin boost from ending historic arrangements is going to be substantial. They might lose some volume, but I would imagine most serious players will play on there tracked or not.

Full Tilt aren't paying rake back any more.

They are using a Stars style system.
