I just got wiped out at a $5/$10 PLO table. The player who took most of my money would win a huge pot, get up to a couple of thousand, then immediately leave and sit back down again with just $200. Unlike on Party, this is NOT allowed on iPoker. In fact when you try to do it, it's not possible - you have to sit with the same you left with. It was infuriating to see him take money off the table like that. I talked with CDPoker online support who told me he had found a software bug which he was exploiting, and they would suspend his account (and, possibly, give me my money back since he was in breach of the site's terms and conditions). They then discovered he was playing through the Titan skin and told me to report him to them. So I have just had the same conversation with Titan. She said "Our Poker Team is checking on it. We're forwarding this matter. I am talking to our Poker Team as well." Who knows what will happen.

So 1) Should he have his account suspended?
2) Should all the money he won be returned to other players?

I hope so...

It would not be possible for someone sitting with $2000 to play PLO properly while never risking more than $200 in a hand. It just wouldn't work! Their opponent raises them, they have to fold. So that comparison is not sensible.

It was 7.30am when we were playing. There were no other $5/$10 games running, and this table was just three-handed. It was the only game in town. When the player first pulled this trick, the third player said "Are you [censored] kidding me?" and left in disgust. I should have done the same. But a replacement third player joined us, and I kept on playing.

He was taking money off the table and that is clearly against the rules. It makes all the difference if there is no other game running.

His username fwiw is xxxCMFxxx and he's from Bergheim

I doubt very much I'll hear back from Titan, but I do think they should suspend his account if not give me my money back.

What you are asking for luckyjimm is a freeroll.
You play the guy regardless of how you feel about his actions with the full intent that if you lose you will demand your money back from the site.
Stop asking for your money back(that you lost fair and square)and get on to the site in question to fix this problem they have with players returning into a game shortstacked.

No, because I had no advance plan.

I don't give a [censored] about the problem. I want my money back. Yes, I am angle-shooting. But I am angle-shooting an angle-shooter. I'm sure I won't get it back, but it was worth a try. And I do think he should have his account suspended.

He should have his account suspended because you lost your money, yes of course you are right.
Lets not care about the problem, lets gamble it up, if we win great,if we lose, demand our money back.

Again, if you can find the rule on Titan's site which states that what the guy did was cheating, go ahead. I couldn't find it, but who knows, maybe I missed it.
