There is a $50 NL Hold'em tournament in 15 minutes that has $5,000 added. It was just posted so there shouldnt be too many players. After that there will be 4 more posted, all with added money.

1. Mike has been a classy representative of party and is good to have on our forums. I truly believe he deserves better treatment than the whole 'go to hell' bit.

2. It is extremely likely that mike had nothing to do with the decision to 'break away' from the Skins. So blaming him specifically is pretty childish and pointless.

3. I don't know about you but I'll be playing some of these money-added tournaments if I'm able to (schedule wise)

Spammers deserve quite a bit worse than what he is currently getting... and the OP here is most certainly spam. Maybe he did not think of it as such (or intend it to be), but even then choosing to post it as such is very poor judgement. If I came along and advertised some freeroll of fat overlay on tourney X I would be turbo-banned, and for good reason.

He probably has nothing to do with the split but by doing what he did he is certainly not helping any. Such bullshit is not welcome around here.

Bob, I agree that the attacks on Mike are too personal and harsh. However, he's getting paid a shitload to act as spokesperson for a company that has proven repeatedly a penchance for being penny wise and pound foolish. As such, he should have to take some [censored]. Especially given that he is a smart, saavy guy, and should know the shitstorm that his half-assed comments would cause.

I agree; Mike should not be the personal target of attack because of the decisions made by Party management beyond his level.

I'll also concede the point that he may have been trying to be helpful in posting the info about a money added tourney.

However, I have to question why this post is not spam, when the posts about O'Doyles army which was not for profit and involved no ad for a specific site were moved, and we have been living under no affiliate/rakeback censorship for the past several months.

Not taking a shot at you, Mike. But if every site came in an announced their money added tourneys, it would be spam city in here. If this is an "olive branch", you may want to wait until folks calm down a bit before offering it.

Actually, I do have a vague notion of Mike's financial arraingements with Party/IGM, and am well versed in what his varied roles (at least those which have been made public) within the company entail. I've gained this knowledge from talking to both b and m casino execs and people with strong online ties. Thanks for playing though.

Because a non-charity organisation can provide you with a source of income? Party are able to do whatever the hell they like. If you think this is a greed thing, use your bankroll to buy stock in party.

I hate to disagree with such a respected poster like bob, but I do think that as a representative of party poker on this forum, mike can be blamed for their poor decisions even if he wasn't directly involved in making them. He's here to represent party and he doesn't even have the decency to be honest and up front about this whole mess. Not cool. Anyways, just my two cents.

Anyone else think Enjoy! is going to replace pwned. Or has it already?

Yes, it's a free market and they should do whatever they can to maximize shareholder value. It's also free for the consumer and pissing off a lot of customers is not a way to do so.

dont fall for it. This is another party trap. They want many of us long time innactive party players to jump in and play some tournament with the promise of a crappy small overlay, so that in 2 days when rakeback on party is announced but its only for people with long time innactive accounts, they can tell you to go [censored] yourself because you just played there in some crappy $50 tourny.
