    If you really think something is up, contact your administrator and try and find a poker forum that discusses online fraud and maybe post up your hand history for some analysis. My cousin was part of the Absolute Poker fraud and he got back some money after he contacted them.

    I hadn't caught that, thx, but hardly surprising. As the guy said, they were incredibly greedy and stupid, if they were just slightly gentler with their approach they'd still be doing it (or still are).

    I'd heard of some of the Mohawk stuff before - the Canadian Politicians don't have the will to enter Mohawk territory any longer.

    I'm sure a monarch a hundred years ago would be jealous of my iPhone ;) Although he would burn me at the stake for it's witchcraft :eek:

    J/k... I'm glad to see a reasonable voice on this topic. Plenty have become wealthy by doing nothing (or pushing a button that says "present"), while others have toiled hard/courageously... only to have failed miserably. Sometimes I feel like my efforts are futile. Might as well join the welfare crowd.

    Wasn't there a professional poker player who frequented F-chat; I believe he had an F430?
