As I said before, "It's not his money UNTIL it is taken off the table". It sounds that the only way it can be taken off the table is to shout, scream, kick, punch and bite. If you want a lesson, I'll sent the war office around. What I gave was the 2013 gentleman's way of using bovverboots. Be prepared to accept something a long way short of $600K. The bottom line is your boy has talent. Which is absolutely worthless if he cannot play in straight games and get his money off the table. The only positive outcome is that that he can play and get his money out. The exercise can then be called experience. Any other outcome can only be called fruitless. |
It's not like I don't believe your telling the truth, macs, it's just that when your talking about that amount of money, well it is hard to believe.
How old is your son? Why didn't his mum withdraw the money? It doesn't sound fare at all that they can just pocket all the money (even any of it). They get paid enough for their vig as it is. I don't understand them. If your son can really play poker then they should be signing him up for all the tournaments around the world rather than Warney who can't be a very good player. |

It's harder to believe from where I'm sat I can tell you TO! He's 22, 23 this year. If the poker account name and bank account owner name doesn't match good luck with getting one red cent transferred to anywhere.
"I don't understand them. If your son can really play poker then they should be signing him up for all the tournaments around the world rather than Warney who can't be a very good player." He accumulated this in less than 2 days TO, at the moment he is just another PITA new client that nobody knows about. We're hoping we can change that by the amount he's won but who knows. I'm not saying anymore in public now until this is resolved one way or another, thanks everyone for your support. |
Sounds like to me that he can just sign up at another room under his own name and away he goes. If he has already signed up at most rooms but doesn't remember his sign in details just email the accounts departments about reinstating his accounts or ask if he can just open a new account. They don't normally turn back new or returning players.
I'm still flabbergasted how well he went in 2 days but I'm not sure he should get too cocky though because it's the same as anything - 2 days does not a summer make. Good luck with the withdrawal and I can leave some comments for you if you take up beton's suggestion. |
Thanks TO.

For the sake of closure of this thread, I was wondering how you went, macs, with getting some/all of your son's money out? I hope you did okay as no news is good news (usually).
|
It's far from closed TO. When it takes a corporate 6 days to reply to one email these things are going to take time. At least they prepared to look in to it according to their first reply which is far more than some corporates I've come across will do. However, do I feel confident, nope but I've grilled my son and son in law for the last week or so to make sure they are absolutely positive of their facts and they are so I'll stand behind them until it's closed one way or another. Screen shots in real time don't lie.
I'll let this thread know the result one way or another but I wouldn't hold your breath, it could take months. |
Okay thanks macs. Go get 'em tiger!

The Ocho - did you ever win a million dollars on Poker? - Even play money?

No. I used to be what they called a bonus whore just going to different poker rooms and playing for the sign up and reload bonuses until the terms became stricter and you had to play a lot more hands to win anything. It was a bit like my trading as I turned $12 into $3000 over a year or two (I actually don't remember how long now :oops" ), took some money out to set up my garden railway :) and other things, but then tried to play on my merits. Suffice to say I had $50 left when I started my horse racing and Betfair adventure first time around. I still play a sit n go 4 or 5 nights a week currently for the grand buy in of 11 cents (or 30 cents if I'm feeling adventurous). :D :( I finished 2nd one night in a pub league once (with 66 players). Only won points though. Have you won that much moeee? |
No I haven't Ocho.
I don't even play Poker , but i did used to about 6 years ago , but only so I could chat up the sheilas online. But I tell you one thing. I pretty sure i worked it out one time. If I had back every cent I lost on the horses and dogs over all my Life , It would be mighty close to a million dollars , if not more. And that was when a million dollars was actually worth a million dollars. |

If there's one thing I've learned it's this. Everyone has their own individual personality, your son has his, and it's his personality that enables him to win at poker. It's a unique talent. If he changes as you want him to then he won't be doing the thing (conscious and subconscious) that enables him to win. It smacks of arrogance that there are people who cannot win at poker that are only too willing to provide advice to someone who can. And before you say that money management isn't part of winning at poker, or what we're talking about here ..... take a few minutes to have a think first. |
I doubt he'll change much Barny. He's been playing around on my account on Zynga Poker the last few days, I had about 220,000 chips in there, I look at it the next morning and there's 575 million, morning after that 13,000 lol. "I was just trying to get you a billion Dad" and the usual cheesy grin :).

I could win a small casket and still be behind them. Sad but true. |
