WTFFFFFFFFFFF
i was sitting with a nice chip stack and come back to see my stack blinded down to ONE big blind left....
All day they had problems tbh
so after not hearing back from them today via email about this i decide to go into live chat and ask about compensation for their fuckup
me: at 13:20:06
hello... last night the site went down right in the middle of a turbo tournament i was playing ....
Diego Martin: at 13:20:39
Do you have the game id number?
me: at 13:20:53
i had a big stack of chips with an excellent chance to win and was not able to play and ended up blinding down to one big blind by the time i was able to get back on to the site
me: at 13:21:13
so when can i expect to see some tyoe of compensation for this?
me: at 13:21:49
We will need to check at the game first for this.
Diego Martin: at 13:21:58
Do you have the game id number Robert?

Diego Martin: at 13:23:23
Please give me a moment to look into this...
me: at 13:23:21
i actually had so many chips that i ended up making the money just by blinding out
me: at 13:23:52
i cashed for $22.19 but first was over $900
me: at 13:24:03
and i had a great chance to win this tournament
Diego Martin: at 13:24:51
Yes I can see that, unfortunately as per our Disconnection Policy a refund does not applies since you ended up winning $22.19.
me: at 13:24:55
what?????????????
Diego Martin: at 13:25:12
You can check our house rules on that by following this link:

Diego Martin: at 13:25:30
Sorry for the inconvenience.
me: at 13:26:21
are you guys seriously going to just rob me of at least 100 dollars here ?
me: at 13:26:42
some one that has had an account for 8+ years ?
Diego Martin: at 13:27:46
I understand where you are coming from Robert, unfortunately this situation does not qualifies for a refund.
me: at 13:27:47
how can you think that is good business?
me: at 13:28:18
you guys make plenty of money , why would u not compensate the players when the site goes down and it is YOUR fault?
me: at 13:28:25
its not like MY internet went out
me: at 13:28:40
YOUR site went down and caused me to lose all my chips!!!
Diego Martin: at 13:29:27
If you check the link that I sent you above you can see how we proceed in this situations.
me: at 13:29:42
your link doesnt say anything about it
me: at 13:29:53
is there somebody higher up i can talk to about this?
me: at 13:30:28
this is absolutely ridiculous that you wouldnt compensate somebody when it is YOUR fault!!!
Diego Martin: at 13:31:12
Basically in this case you ended up winning money, reason why we cannot compensate you for that.
me: at 13:33:05
the reason i won money is because I HAD SO MANY CHIPS that i was able to just blind out and STILL MAKE THE MONEY
me: at 13:33:48
how can i continue to play tournaments when i know that the site could crash at any time and you guys will not compensate the players that blind off during this time??????
me: at 13:34:38
and you are treating a loyal player of almost TEN years like this??
Diego Martin: at 13:35:13
When playing any type of online based game there is always the risk of facing disconnection problems.
Diego Martin: at 13:35:48
Unfortunately in this case, since you did not lose money, as per our house rules we cannot compensate you.
me: at 13:36:49
so you are saying .... if i would have blinded out one spot short of the money i would be compensated?
me: at 13:36:58
lol that is ludicrous
Diego Martin: at 13:37:24
We would have been able to credit your buy in back.
me: at 13:37:50
just $11 when i am set up with a stack of chips in position to WIN the tournament for over $900 ?????
Diego Martin: at 13:38:14
Correct.
me: at 13:38:17
and you wont even compensate me in the form of tournament coupons or anything??
me: at 13:38:24
i just get completely stiffed?
Diego Martin: at 13:39:29
As I mentioned we wont be able to issue you a compensation for this situation.
Diego Martin: at 13:39:40
Sorry for the inconvenience.
me: at 13:39:38
i would like to talk to your supervisor then
Diego Martin: at 13:40:07
This resolution is coming directly from my supervisor Robert.
me: at 13:40:40
well just so you know i am going to post this conversation to every poker forum that i know of, to warn other players of the shadiness of the poker site
me: at 13:41:09
people need to know that this site crashes ALL THE TIME during tournaments and they do NOT compensate the player when this happens
Diego Martin: at 13:43:17
We have our house rules for this type of situations, and you agreed to those rules upon signing up in our site Robert.
me: at 13:43:45
that is just insane
me: at 13:43:52
fix your fucking site
Diego Martin: at 13:45:18
Is there anything else I may assist you with?
what a fucking shit show
its not just sportsbook, every poker sites is having these issues
yeah thats fine if they have their issues but it is downright FRAUD to just stiff the players and not compensate them when this shit happens...
i had so many chips that i blinded into the money for a min cash (20 some dollars) when first was over 900.... how can they not give me ANYTHING AT ALL?????
the guy has the nerve to tell me "thats a risk you take when you play online poker"
LOL its not like MY internet went out, THEIR FUCKING SITE CRASHED
me: at 13:43:52
fix your fucking site
Diego Martin: at 13:45:18
Is there anything else I may assist you with?
HOF
obv stars is god .... actually party poker was god but stars was a close 2nd.... wish i could still play on stars ... i crush
lol now they are fucking me out of their weekly promotion for sports betting as well.... you are supposed to get 5% of your sports betting losses credited back to your account every monday as a freebet...
i lost around $240 this week so should have a $12 freebet coming... doesnt seem like much but i always make like a 5 team parlay which i have a shot at winning $250 or so... but they arent giving it to me this week claiming that "i dont have any net losses"
pure fucking bullshit
Internet Poker just like Indian gaming in illegal gambling states, they got you by the balls and they know it.
They play by their own rules.
Last week I had 4 days straight of repeatedly getting disconnected off of Bovada
I contacted them several times and they just kept saying I had a weak connection
LOL
I have up to 100 Mbps connection
Laptop with internal and a backup external WiFi adapter, have my girls laptop and tablet
and a hotspot
Was happening on both connections with all devices but yeah its on my end
