PPA should disassociate itself from scandal ridden CEO Poker tour

[Cuba_Libre]

I would like to say that you guys should give Maria a second chance. I met her when I played in the CEO Poker Tour event at the Venetian (which was an extremely well run event) and she was nothing but honest and kind.

You all should really believe that she would never try to deceive anyone and that her ethics are top notch.

I hope to see you in the next CEO Poker Tournament.

Good Luck!

I am amazed at how LOL hilarious this entire situation is.

Who plans on calling the feds to investigate?

What 18% did we take at the Taj? At this point that is not true. The rake was not 18% at the Taj. We didnt even have a charity component.

And as I explained in the thread above the numbers above proove we didnt have an 18% or 20% juice. Please look at the pay outs.

My statement I believe addresses what type of action we are ready to take to address the concerns of the players and the forum.

Maria you have really pinned yourself in a corner. You claim the Taj Mahal entrants were not overcharged. Here are the exact numbers form the prliminary events at the Taj. They follow a similar pattern of excessive juice.



Here are the numbers for the events you claimed werent overcharged.

BUY-IN $550

Prizepool $116,100
Entires: 258

258 x $450 = $116,100
FINAL RESULTS: May.19 VIEW STANDINGS: May.19

$450 of each players $550 went into the Prizepool.

Each Player paid $450 + $100


May 20th 163 entires at $550

Total Prizepool $73,350

163 x $450 = $73,350

Again the players were charged $450 + $100


May 21 138 entries at $550

Total Prizepool $62,100

Guess what

138 x 450 = $62,100

Three tournaments where players paid $450 plus $100 juice

Next was the $1625 buyin

77 Entries

Prizepool of $85,250

This tourney was a staggering $1107 + $518 juice.



Can you dispute these exact numbers?

Every CEO tourney from the Taj, Palms and Venetian all have the same pattern. An entry fee that shows 8-10% juice but an actual 18-20% taken out.

Can 2p2 do an IP address ping on pokerdoc101 and CeoPoker1, I can venture an educated guess that the IP addresses are identical!

Yes they are identical.

Mason, are you seriously stating that these nice comments about the CEO Poker tour came from Marias own IP address? This is bordering on outrageous.....
