Default Live at the Bike seems to be a scam.

I registered for Live at the Bike tonight to see my friends, DeathDonkey, Mike L, Mr. Gatorade, play poker.

I saw them for about 2 seconds before Live at the Bike defaulted to a disclaimer and some broadcast of a 20/40NL game with Phil Laak.

I registered with my credit card on two occasions. If I get charged for this bull$hit I will let everyone know. At the moment L@TB is total bull$hit as I sent an email and have yet to hear form them.

I will keep you all posted,
Joe Tall

Joe,

The good thing is that when it gets taken care of, you'll be able to watch the show in archived form.

Shouldn't it be called "Not Live at the Bike", then?

Joe -

I agree with you. I've registered, payed my money, and I can only watch the 6:22 intro. I've tried everything with cookies and caches, IE and firefox. The good news is I can see the 6:22 on firefox, IE, or windows media player. w00t.

Good luck. Hope it works for you. Lemme know how it turns out if you ever get to see it.

Maybe they should just call it, "At the Bike"

You're not helping your chances of getting technical support from LATB.

Well the archive footage came for about 20mins before it defaulted to some bull$hit advertisement about a $16k pot and some footage with Bobby in it. Live at the Bike needs to get their $hit together before they start charging for it. At this moment, it's a total scam.

I'm guessing, but I don't know, that Joe's goal here is to prevent others from being swindled the $15. I mean, this website is dedicated to helping others make money, right?

I certainly know that if I had read his post first I wouldn't have lost my money as well.
