Absolute Poker accuses me of being Psychic!!

ProPokerPlayer · Apr 16, 2006

1 hr and 9 mins or so into a tourny i run into a technical problem, about an hour later i email them about the problem and maybe 40 mins later i am eliminated from the tourny due mostly to the problem..........Absolutes response????????? i wrote them about the problem......get this!!!!! BEFORE IT EVER OCCURED!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats right guys, stand back and prepare to be amazed, i know what cards are coming and you can be assured i will be using my psychic abilities to sweep the board at the WSOP this year.....on 2nd thought ill probably just take down 8 or 9 bracelets this year. i dont want to totally ruin the sport we have all come to love........

P.S..imho Absolute Poker is a dump with crappy software, stay far away if you like to play with real money.........

Glad things were cleared up PPP.

Just open a PokerStars account after debating between them and PartyPoker. Hopefully I've made the right choice.

After intertops closed (I miss our 3 daily tourneys in which most people playing them were known) I took a week break and opened an account with PokerStars last night. Looking good...

BOL and we'll see you around the tables (what's your handle at PS?)

what's your handle at PS?

AllynLong .but i rarely play there anymore. i try the $3 rebuy sattelitte into the $1 mill guar about 3 times a week and thats it.......all the regular tournys are just all-in donkey fests at the levels i can afford, i find that if i cant play at least $50 or + tournys there i have just as high a chance to win playing slots at an online casino. you wait for a big hand and get called by 3-4 underdogs 1 of which is going to suck out 90% of the time.a few fine examples in my thread below entitled here i go again.....for the small entries i play at i need either a small site. Absolute, golden palace, sports interaction, etc or Party where i get 3000 starting chips and a lil more room to manuever........

But if ya'll find a tourny there that you play regularly lemme know i'll drop in!
