ajzepp Posted July 14, 2006 Author Posted July 14, 2006 Im in. BTW, if someone has an account there, do the refer a friend to my email. Might not get anything, but then again maybe I'll stay and play there. BTW, not sure bout this place, but at Party Poker there is an option to buy a phone card with your credit card, then use the balance to play. This is the way they get around the card companies not allowing their cards to be used at gambling sites. From what i hear, they were getting murdered by folks losing their shirt and deposting up to tehir credit limit, then claiming it wasn't them. Thats why crsdit cards are being declined, its not Neteller or any body elses fault. BTW, i use neteller, certified my account, never have had a problem. I think if you certify your checking account, it takes like three days. So if ya did today, should be active by wed. 722977[/snapback] I just got off the phone with Party Poker....that's pretty damn smart the way they've circumvented the CC issue by selling phone cards instead! This does give us an easier way for people who want to use their credit card to fund their account, but the two main differences between Party Poker and Poker Room are 1) Party Poker's min deposit is higher ($50), and 2) we'd be playing a cash game instead of a sit and go. Let me know what you guys think.....I'll plan on going ahead with the Poker Room game unless you guys want to switch to PP.
GoodBye Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 If you need an extra body I'll play. That's if you don't mind a girl playing with ya. (Expecting at least one person to say some kind of joke from my post.)

ajzepp Posted July 15, 2006 Author Posted July 15, 2006 Alright, two more! This is shaping up to be a really nice turnout!

CollegeGuy 6. BlueFire 7. udonkey (maybe) 8. LanaK6 (dead money....lol) 9. MDH 10. Gary M Keep 'em comin' guys! We can have up to 50 for the game!
Gary M Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 Netteller sucks. Every card I own is getting declined. 4-5 business days for checking? Will that be good for Wed? 722878[/snapback] I think this might be the problem. http://apnews1.iwon.com/article/20060712/D8IQB60O0.html

ajzepp Posted July 15, 2006 Author Posted July 15, 2006 Okay, I've set the Tourney at www.pokerroom.com for Wed 7/19 @ 9:10pm EST Click on the "Tournaments" tab, thcn on "Private", and look for my screen name, "AJZepp". The password fr the tourney is the same as last week, "2billsdr", all lower case.
Estro Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 In the future, if its on party poker, I'm game. Party poker is so much more user friendly.

It would be nice to have a 'home site', and I think Party Poker may be a great place for that since people can use their credit cards. Maybe after this game on Wed we can take a vote and see if everyone wants to try PP.

It also would allow law enforcement officials to work with Internet providers to block access to gambling Web sites. The bill would exempt state-run lotteries and horse racing. So ultimately, internet gambling will be shut down, except such as it benefits the state. No self-serving hypocrisy there...

No self-serving hypocrisy there... 723441[/snapback] The whole thing is such bullschit....It infuriates me when they cite some peoples lack of control over their vices as one of the reasons why ALL of us should lose our right to online gaming. For every jackass who ends up putting their damn HOUSE in jeopardy, there are a thousand others of us who simply enjoy depositing twenty bucks every so often to play small stakes poker games. It's absolutely ridiculous. Hopefully the Senate will put the kabash on this bill and that will be the end of it.
