CheckNRaise poker (ongame) renegs on WSOP Tickets

[MycroftX]

That suuuuuucks.... I'm sorry to hear it man.

Is it possible to buy your 10K ticket with some savings, and as you are slowly paid by CnR deposit each payment back into your savings account? (hopefully they actually will payout that 5% each month, could be a gamble to buy the 10K and than see CnR fold.)

Obviously, I'm sure you've considered that if it's possible, but it would just make me happy to see you reply 'yes,' lol. You must have been so psyched about going....again I'm sorry to hear that man.

I'll avoid CnR from here on out.

If just making the money (aka 10k) is "life changing" money to him, I doubt he has enough savings to buy into the main event himself.

I too won a WSOP ticket through CheckNRaise, but it actually worked out nice for me since I won one in Stars too, now instead of forfeiting one I get cash for it.

Still sucks tho, looks like nothing you can really do accept take the money

Um, I'm sure he meant something along the lines of a million dollar payout when he said "life changing money."

Normally I wouldn't have gone to the WSOP this year, but again, a shot at life changing money was worth it when my wife and I talked it over (and life changing money for me is pretty low, heck, even making it ITM would have helped).

Lol. I was thinking life changing at 1/4 million or so. I could put a downpayment on a house with that here in Miami. Getting my buyin back by finishing ITM means I'd just buy something nice for my family, thus the "helped" part.

Rob, you might want to lay low with the rest of the ten who are in this predicament. Driving business away from them is not going to serve you well in your hopes of getting paid off over the next 20 months.

I understand your anger. But your only hope now is to see them stay in business while they owe you the 11k.

You have to give them credit for being upfront with you about the issue. Most sites wouldn't do that. Admitting a cash flow problem is about as bad as it can get.

Lay low and keep your fingers crossed is what I'd do right now.

Or you could take the 110% and put it aside for next years WSOP. I am pretty sure there is one every year.

No doubt this doesn't look good, but its not like you are getting stiffed. They are open and honest and will make it back to you with a little extra for the time and trouble.

And since your odds of making any money are pretty slim your family will be better off with the 11,000 as opposed to you blowing it on a longshot chance at big bucks.

I hope you dont have any cash in your account there.And never count your money until the cash is in your hand.
I have had a stock broker from a major firm that I bought and sold stocks through, bounce a check they gave me when I cashed out one time. It took me a little over a month to get paid but you dont really expect a major firm to bounce a check with all of the regulatory agencies looking on.

I'm not sure if I agree with locking the newer thread but I'm a messy person I suppose and at least it points the right way. Anyway, I'd encourage those other players affected by the CnR issue to contact [email protected] about it too. This is a service in development apparently but they told me they were investigating the issue and other than posting their email address (which they PMed me and I hope is cool with them) I'm going to respect their request and publicly withhold any further complaints for the moment (though my patience has its limits).
