The REAL story on Pokershare/UB - Page 2

Steve, you should get your money soon. They seemed to give priority to the big accounts, but I believe everyone will get paid eventually.

Pokershare didn't shut down your account. If Max Wright had his way, your Pokershare account would still work. The network shut down Pokershare's North American accounts because they felt that PS stepped on UB's toes.

While this is certainly annoying and scary, it's a hell of a lot better than a network just shutting down and vanishing.

Thanks Dan. I know its not Max's fault. I know he had no control over the acct closures. Im just pissed the way it all went down. When i get my money ill shut up.

Bumping this because it makes more sense than SEC violations...

Edit: plus the posts on the pokershare website are figgin hilarious.

I really hope everyone who got burned by this boycots UB and they go under anyway. The new trend in online poker seems to be screw the customers.

Anyway, thanks Dan, your post explains quite a bit.

Come on Stars, hurry up with that draw engine. Finding a site that doesn't get its kicks screwing over the customers isn't the easiest thing right now.

Very nice post. I was upset that my pokershare account was closed although I did not have any money there. I was planning on making a deposit shortly and playing some triple draw.

I'm boycotting UB and I'll never play at Pokershare again if they come back to U.S. players.

how does it make sense to boycott both? you can boycott ub because you're mad they did these things, but it looks like pokershare had no choice here!

When I first inquired by email as to what was going on with my money, they replied that a check was issued to me for $42.70. This was alarming because I had over $500.00 in my account!! I sent off another email and just got a response with the corrected amount... my fingers are crossed that it arrives safe and sound.
