very gay hand from last night:

25/50 6max

utg retard minraises to 100, call, retard SHORTSTACKER WITH ONLY 1K BEHIND 3bets to 300. Button cold calls. SB cold calls. I have KK in the BB. What [censored] choice do I have? So obv I make it 1200. Everyone folds except shorstacker who snaps with AA. So GAY that I can't even get a side pot going or moreso that button/SB who are aggro don't decide to squeeze/isolate and instead decide to flat call 1/3 of CO's stack forcing me to isolate against AA with dead $ in the middle folding out all hands I smoke.

GAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Open a new account and pay the $25 fee or whatever it is via credit card. If you do bank account it will take days, but the credit card is instant. My banks have been blocking transactions to epass recently, but maybe you'll get lucky.

This may be sort of common knowledge but I found it hilarious and postworthy, so here we go:

Upon arriving to the Panorama Towers I stay overnight with some MTT friends who let me have their couch before my room in the Bellagio opens up tomorrow. Some people are deep in tournaments on laptops, and some are playing Guitar Hero.

So, FatalError signs into Guitar Hero and his XboxLive name, as we find out, is Grimstarr. We laugh a good bit, and FatalError says,

"Yeah, sometimes random people ask me over the mic 'OMG are you the same Grimstarr that plays on FullTilt?' and I say 'I used to be!'"

Poker Stars, $5/$10 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 2 Players
LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

BB: $1,189.50

Flop: ($60) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $45</font>, <font color="red">BB raises to $130</font>, Hero calls $85

Turn: ($320) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">BB bets $260</font>, Hero calls $260

River: ($840) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">BB bets $769.50 and is All-In</font>, Hero calls $769.50

Results: $2,379 Pot ($0.50 Rake)

Yup, you can use it right away. You'll ultimately want to setup your bank account though so you're able to cash out via EFT or Wire. Or you can just ATM withdraw $600/24hr if that works for you after they send you the ATM card.

I've used ePassporte for about the last 4 years and it's been pretty reliable, just slow to do the EFT cashouts to bank.

The fastest way to get anything done with epassporte is to use a different company instead. They are a piece of [censored] company with disgusting disregard for their customers.

edit: There are so many withdrawl limits and what not, and their customer support service is so slow, that it's just hard to believe this is your best option. Others I've talked to have had better luck than I have, but after the hassle they put me through (account locked for 4 months), I just can't pass up an opportunity to try to prevent them from getting anyone else's business.
