not happy with AP

aaok- I believe its actually 5% and party poker has done this for years [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] It sucks for everyone, but it isnt exactly how you put it.

you are getting 30% of 95% instead of 30% of 100% which is 28.5%

I could be VERY VERY VERY wrong here, and I will try to find out.

As far as staying neutral, it's hard because I asked one of the owners of Absolute and he denied everything. Someone I have spent alot of time with, met personally 3 times.

I have again fired an email to him with new information.

Well as best as I can tell. Im getting 24% of rake on single tables not even 95% of 30%, and even if I was that was not the deal..
If they wanted to change the deal they should have given me the option to leave b4 they started short changing me.
I now just want to leave AP for ever.
All I want to know is can I send my rakeback to another poker site?

We are in a tough spot, and we are pulling Absolute Poker from our 2+2 ads for the time being. We'll have new banners up tomorrow.

KurtSF · #5 10-19-2007, 03:07 PM

RR, I know you're in a tough spot. As a customer I would prefer you not do business with low-life scum like AP, but I also know there are existing agreements in place, and there will be other customers who would throw a [censored]-fit if you dropped AP.

Thanks for taking down the AP banner ads. For now, all I ask is you keep us updated on the situation.

metsandfinsfan · #6 10-19-2007, 03:33 PM

yeah i dont think you have to stop carry ap or anything
but i was thinking you should inform your customer via rakeupdate message what is going on

i think it is the right thing to do

TheRedRocket · #7 10-21-2007, 05:36 PM

I think they should stop carrying AP. AP cheated and then lied repeatedly to the customers of rr. how on earth can they continue to send them business in good faith? but im not the one who would lose lots of $$ so its easy for me to say (and its the right thing to do) and I understand that.

I wish it were that easy, we have alot of players that still play there and we don't want to burn any bridges with our current play base.

We have stopped advertising them on 2+2. Totally dropping them could cause problems in the future (As Absolute & UB are owned by the same company)

We are playing a wait and see game now
