Even if you did not know Sportingbet owned the Paradise Poker operation, you were clearly making a direct comparison between a site you seem to prefer and ours, for which you have developed a clear dislike.

No, I did not know that, and I apologise for calling you a liar unfairly (although you did make strong insuations about my motivations, which you probably knew to be untrue).

In that post I was simply offering offering an addition to the list of available sites, using available information at the time (i.e. trying to be helpful). I did not compare your site to Paradise, nor do I prefer playing there (I think they're a crap site).

[ QUOTE ]
The subsequent direct comparison can be fairly called "trying to steer players to another site you prefer" over ours.

[/ QUOTE ]
No, it can't. Again you insuate things that simply aren't true.

Imagine if someone had called you a bad name or had made some truly derogatory remark about your integrity.

I'm not trying to spam my poker site, as you have a history of doing. My integrity or motivations are not of importance, unlike yours. I maintain that you are deliberately fluffling up the legal status of this bill. Whether you actually don't understand it, or are lying, I don't know. For another example of you claiming far too much in order to get business, check out this thread where you are called out by another poster for offering sketchy legal advice that fits your own interest:

Anyway, I'm done with this. I've spent enough time on this crap. My only interest in this whole thing was pointing out your obvious dishonesty, and seeing that you didn't gain from it. People are so grateful to have anyone give them certainty (no matter how real it is) that they don't care. So be it.

Good luck with your business.

Phil,

You have a history of trolling and he doesn't. He has been a positive contributor to this forum long before the passage of this legislation, and you haven't. And since you aren't even american, you don't have a stake in the the new law as we do.

And as far as his promoting his site, yes he has done that, although often in response to requests for information from other players. What do you think Lee Jones is doing here when he responds in his official capacity as a spokesman for stars?
