Are you sure this is the end of it? Didn't know it was possible to cash out to another persons bank or whatever he used. And if it is pokerstars should be able to recover his identity.
Man, this is real shit..
I always thought poker accounts are supersafe.
I rly dont understand how they could proccess the withdrawal to some other person then u. I mean, he had to fill in his details.
+ I dont get why dont they uncover his identity once they learned it has been fraud.
Its real underbelt hit.
Wish you ll find enough strenght in urself to recover from it.

I already mailed Pokerstars concerning this matter but they cant seem to give any info about the suspects webmoney account/IP adress and such. I mailed Webmoney (the site to where the transaction is made) today, maybe if they can do something about it.
Anyways I'm not to pleased of the support Pokerstars gave me on this subject. I used to be very pleased with their support but in this case they really replied late everytime and didnt provide me with that much new info, but whatever. Its like a closed case for them I guess.
Gonna have a smallish break from poker now to work on my masterthesis. I also wait till the RSA tokens arrive before I'm gonna play on a poker client.
this is so terrible!!! i hope whoever he is gets the superbadkarma he deserves x 100.
i would be crushed if this happend to me.
tbh, given the circumstances, i think ur handling it quite well jonas. mindset like a pro. i bow to ur coolness.
I already failed not playing :(. Played 6k hands yesterday
and got a decent % back already.
that's why i always cashout my bankroll and just leave around 1k$ but still play on the same limits.
if i bust i reload again. its safer that way than have your entire bankroll at risk with hacks and what nots.
sorry to hear about what happend to you dude.
I do the same ;).
But I 20-24 table so you can make the calculation to NL200/400.
Luckily I cash out frequently and I saw it almost instant. If it would have happened the week before (when I was on holiday), I would have lost way more.
Oh and FAIL of they day:
One month ago I decided that I wanted to play some more live tournaments and I saw the Czech-Slovak Tour starting the end of June.
I didnt saw any qualifiers for this event so I mailed support:
CSPT Praag 25-28 juni 2009
D'oh!!
Edit: already bought plane tickets ♦, but I got some good friends over there so honestly I dont mind.
How could you have lost more if he cashed out the maximum ?
Anyway it sucks to hear
But you'll get it back in no time, im sure.

Its a maximum for each day
So I'm back to the grind.
Last days I've been masstabling SH cause it gives me a bit more vpps than FR and I can manage to play more hands (fr:24tables is still not that much). I tried at first to start with 8-10 tables but I just die of boredom. Not only my mind but my body need to be in constant motion I guess. So I pumped it up till 18 tables leading to few unused seconds during a session.
I'm also a bit more adapted to the SH dynamics right now. In the beginning I was amazed by the light stack offs and the amount of 3barrel bluffs etc. But right now I create a feel for it and things are going better.
Graph:

I'm fairly happy with this, because:
- I just started SH
- Nonsd are positive (nice imo when playing so many tables)
- Winrate is decent as well (given that I ran a bit cold and avg 1.5k hands/h
Ofc not yet a great sample

There also were two regulars who were chatting vs each other all the time. On one person I had a note, cbets a lot and folds often to c/r.
So because he plays 18 tables as well + was chatting + this note, I called EVERY steal of him in bb (on 5 tables I was bb when he was BU). Also he steals 50%. He always made a potsized cbet and I c/r it every time (which were a lot of times) and he only called/raised twice in an entire 2hour session.
I made some mistakes though:
- Once I folded my bb vs his steal
- Once I forgot to c/r
- Once I c/r when a flopped the nut straight
But apart from that he made me 3 stacks that session and I only stacked him once :P.
Anyways, gn y'all!
looks like you're doing well
i'm surprised i saw that from twinpsych, I think he is aggro but not that crazy esp in a 3way pot. You must have some sort of sick read or some monkey dynamics
and fasteddie playing NL200 is also surprising when he plays 400-1000 most of the time
Well I dont really know him that well but I have pretty aggro image and he is very aggro as well.
On flop he has no value raising range besides 66 and maybe 2 KJs (I dont think he flats them preflop, also JJ/KK/AK not). His mostly likely holding is QT or just some random 98s with backdoors. So he only has 5 valuecombos which is too few to let me fold my 'strong' hand.
Turn and river dont chance too much, only AT got there and I dont think thats in his range toooo often, maybe 15% of the time or so so I called fairly quick on this one.
Edit: after analysing this he could also have T9s a lot here so it actually becomes close but still have the right odds to call. He will bluff here far more than 25% needed
Yesterday I made some scenarios of my poker career and I figured out that mindlessly grinding for SNE is probably a bad idea. I mean the benefits in terms of $$$ are huge but since I started so late I would not be able to:
- take many days off
- have a healthy learning:playing balance
- do anything else than 24tabling nlhe cash
Given that I can still earn a good winrate elsewhere, the global picture of SNE becomes actually really unatractive.
So main things I'm gonna do in the future:
- Play more tournaments (I just love playing them)
- Watch much more vids and analyse my/opponents play more
- 4table SH (dont know where yet, probably iPoker)
- Grind nl200 rush for easy monies
- Learn PLO
- Coach more
So no one specific thing cause I just love diversity+independency (I hate being commited on one thing, thats why the SNE thing also afraids me in a way)
So today already played some rush +6 stack sessions :f_biggrin:. Saw 2 good vids, saw Argentina win and now playing some tournaments.
Cheers

Sometimes I'm gonna play 4 tables nl200sh and try to improve as much as I can.
Sometimes I will just grind 200fr rush poker for when I'm not in the mood to think a lot but still wanting some easy $$$ ♦.
Sometimes I will play tournaments or PLO.

Today it is voting time here in Belgium. VOTE OR DIE!
Do you call that 4bet because of the deepness? And with 100bb, you would 5bet shove i suppose?
