Re: Massive $140,000 chip dump on Ongame
[ QUOTE ]
I also don't condone people "defrauding" pokerrooms, but if they are not cheating anyone, than I couldnt care less. [/ QUOTE ] How do you know they aren't cheating anyone? Any chance the account being dumped from has been hacked? Seems like one of the most likely scenarios to me. I find it hard to envision any "legitimate" reason for the dump...anyone who has $130,000 online should know enough not to try to "transfer" to someone else by chip dumping. |

I obviously don't condone people's accounts getting hacked and their money stolen. But to be honest, like I said earlier, I could care less if people are stealing from Ongame, especially Pokerroom, even though I still don't understand how this is stealing from Ongame. If the guy did hack someone's account and is stealing his cash, then he should burn in hell. If they are laundering, then its non of my business. EDIT: has a site ever upped its rake to cover money fraud, stolen cc's etc?? serious question, I obviously don't know much about this. |

Re: Massive $140,000 chip dump on Ongame
obviously the rake covers expenses, and fraud is an expense of doing business.

[/ QUOTE ] Fraud is massive expense for poker rooms and in some occasions fraud can bust poker rooms. Any time rake goes up assume fraud has gone up too as it is one of the top expenses a poker room has. This is why some poker roms seem overly paranoid. |

Re: Massive $140,000 chip dump on Ongame
OP: what table did this occur at. Was it one of the tables with a name, or was it a private table that can be created by any player?
And plz describe dumping. Was it one player raising everything except $1, and the other one folding? |

The dumper would raise to 9900 and fold to the all in of the other one. The receiver left with 150K in probably 5 minutes. Teddy I'm curious who you are, I sweat lots of HS games but didn't know any were 2+2 posters! GL |

[/ QUOTE ] Not that I've heard of; I have to admit on second thought that a direct link may be a bit of a red herring...although I'm sure less bonus could be a possibility if fraud like this was rampant. The bigger issue really is other players being ripped off, which is the main reason I think it is incumbent on players to report chip dumping like this. |
