Another Case of Prima locking an Account without Evidence

[PBaek]

Recently a top Danish no limit player became victim of Prima Poker Networks methods. This player is extremely well respected and has gained a reputation of being one of the absolute best online no limit hold´em players. Many of you will probably know this player as Pokergirl1 on Ladbrokes or _THESTAR _ on Prima Poker.

In this case Prima has not presented any kind of evidence whatsoever and has just denied to reopen the account claiming _THESTAR_ has received “bad money”. When playing as Pokergirl1 on Ladbrokes the were a lot of Danish followers, who saw how Pokergirl1 through skilled play has been beating the highest no limit games on the site for a long time now. The same has been the case at a Prima Poker room where all of a sudden this players account was locked containing around $60,000.

Prima has refused to present any kind of evidence on this matter and also refused to reopen the account or pay any of the players winnings.

A large part of the Danish poker community are now united through the Danish message board Pokernet in helping this player get his money back, and have started closing our accounts at the Prima Poker sites; 1) to show our support to this player, and 2) because we as poker players are repulsed by this kind of behaviour. We feel we cannot play to win big without the fear of having our accounts closed based on speculation from Prima Poker.

We hope that the players here would show sympathy with the player and help by mailing the Prima Network poker rooms to show you will not tolerate unfair treatment of players and theft of winning players funds.
