Avoid Cnr (Check n Raise) Poker

[Declan]

Sorry Doc,Hope It didn't sound like I was having a go, just gave me a laugh. I believe the thread is about a site named "Check n Raise" which should be avoided because they can't meet their financial commitments, rather than the merrits of the act in poker known as "Check n Raise"

No, but I wrote it from the standpoint of someonewho just read the title and hasn't understood thethread. ROFL someone help me up!

I'd also avoid Bayou and Carinval Poker (both Ongame skins): http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=5908014&page=1&fpart=1&v c=1

There's a News Release from Poker.com which states:Poker.com, has generously offered to provide the WSOP packages won by ten ChecknRaisePoker.com members who have been told that ChecknRaisePoker.com is unable to fund their World Series of Poker prize packages as previously won through their website promotions. Poker.com has attempted to contact ChecknRaisePoker.com management by email and telephone to confirm this situation and offer to cover the prize costs, but as yet have been unable to get a response. Both the tournament entry fee and spending money according to the terms of each promotion will be provided by Poker.com if any of the affected players come forward. Poker.com Director of Gaming, Paul Cherry said, "I don't want to comment too much at this time, as we are yet to obtain confirmation that the reported situation is accurate. But if the story is true, we are happy to help these players however possible." ______________________________What I can't work out is why Poker.com would do this apart from the publicity. Generous offer if true, but expensive publicity stunt. yoyo
