See note above. This offer is on hold, effective immediately. I'll post more when I learn more.

Will do.... Hope to have things worked out tomorrow. I'll probably still be able to offer you guys some sort of "can't lose" deal, but it might not be $50 any more. Because my players are "unprofitable" (not exactly a big surprise), they cut my commission. I'll get this sorted out in the next day or two...

who the hell cares if we are profitable or not they get there rake if we win or lose. Ok so we lose and deposit again and they get more rake, this I just dont get at all. I really hate the skin so the only reason I deposited there was to get the $50 free on pokerstars but I understand if you cant give it and I know you will take care of us you have never screwed anyone before and I know you wont now tp.

Um............ You are missing the point completely. They don't care if you are profitable as in if you win or lose - they care if you are profitable to them. So, if the "rake" you generate is, say, 10% of the amount of money they pay me for you playing there (or even 90% for that matter), they are losing money on you. Hence, they are cutting my commission.

If you look at the part of your comment that I bolded, that is exactly why this happened. It's not your fault (or anyone else's), but that's the point. Too many people were depositing, collecting the money from me, and leaving without playing there enough to make this a good deal for THEM too.

I WILL honor ALL the signups made up until the time I posted the notice this morning. I will also work out some sort of deal for everyone else in the next day or two... It just might not be $50 any more. It won't be tons less, but it will probably be less.

Anbd we're still on for the freeroll, regardless.

Default cool


really cool of you to still give the $50 even though you are not getting the deal from them anymore, I thank you. Honestly I dont mind giving new sites some action but I really cant stand their torney schedules. Usually if you offer a new site and it looks good to me I will stay there but the site really didnt impress me too much.

I understand but how can they decide we are unprofitable after what 1 week? Is it because we just made minimum deposits? I mean if they just give us one week thats pretty sad because who says next week someone wont just dump 1k in there to play. Personally I think they are losing out by screwing you over and making a bad name for themselves here.

I was actully planning on putting more in there in next couple of weeks because even though I dont like the tornies the NL cash games are very good. Now though im not to sure about it.
