Anaconda....

I've only been a member of PokerNews.com for a few days, and all I have seen you do is gripe!

1. Manipulated outcome? Cash never leaving cashier? Are you kidding me? The tournament paid out according to the usual payout schedule for a tournament of that size. If anything if I wanted to make sure the money never left the cashier, I would pay out smaller prizes to MORE players, not less. I guarantee you that most of that money will leave the site through cashouts this way rather than if less was paid to more players.

2. The Freeroll was advertised all over this site through banners, a permament link on every page for 2 weeks and a listing on the freerolls page, all over the Poker.com landing page you signed up from, has been visible in the Poker.com software since December 4 and there has been an active thread about it in this very forum since December 9. I guess you didn't notice any of that?

3. Perhaps I did not email out a reminder in order to reward the PokerNews.com members actually playing at Poker.com or that are active at PokerNews.com and not those that simply deposit the minimum, never play and are just chasing freerolls? Ever think about it like that?

I just GAVE AWAY $10,000 to PokerNews members and still you are not happy....

I think the tournament was more than adequately advertised and although I'm sorry you missed out I don't think you have any grounds for complaint. What does it take to please some people?

Better luck next time I guess....

I deleted all of Anacondas posts. I am over him. I will find out how to ban his posting rights as soon as possible. ALL we do at PokerNews.com is try to bring as much value as possible to the players...Kris - How much money did PokerNews.com make on the 14 day Freeroll deal? - NONE.

But, some jerk always has to find somewhere to grind his axe.

I work my ass off to get players the best value - Do I make money? Of course. But we COULD just take all the money we give out in these freerolls, and pocket it....But we don't.

For those of you who have supported this website, and helped it grow to a top 5 poker portal - we thank you. For those of you who do not appreciate what we are doing - Go somewhere else, and post your poisonous garbage.

Anaconda, I don't know what you think you are gaining from this, but in regards to your request for money winners from Pokernews freerolls to post here, well here I am. I played in one of the first Pokernews freerolls held at Noble Poker a few months ago, and finished in the money. It was immdeiately deposited into my account and I could also cash it out immediately. I have also played in Pokernews Freerolls at Titan but sadly did not make the money there.

You have a following here now????? OMG the only following I can see is a dark cloud of delusion that follows you around.
