New member wants to trade PS for FULLTILT

xtce · #1 () 02-28-2008, 01:01 PM

Just joined up and did some research on trading and came upon this site. I have been playing regularly on PS and want to try FT. I'm offering $12 Pokerstars for $10 on Fulltilt. I'm a low limit player and you can PM me if interested.

I would suggest that anyone doing a trade not do it through pms, but openly on the boards imo.

Well, yes, you're a new member. Welcome aboard.

There is a relatively new procedure, for making these trades, and I'd like to bring you up to speed. (Please forgive the 'preachy' tone, but this note is as much for others, who will read this, as it is for you. You have been quite up front with the fact that you are a new member, but there are others who have not been so honest about it, and others still who have tried to take advantage of other members).

Please list your account names, on both sites, right here in the forum. God and everybody can see those account names, eh? Your trading partner should do the same. If he does not, well, beware.

Don't use AIM, ICQ, MSM, or those other messaging services. Keep everything out here in the open, for all to see. It protects everybody.

I'll be happy to help with your trade. Plan on sending to ChukNorAce (Flint) on PS, and receiving, immediately, from abominable on FTP. Thank you for the offer of a premium, but I don't really need it (Welcome Aboard!) and most of the members here are happy to trade straight up between PS and FTP. Cake, UB, and Absolute can be hard to get rid of, and you might have to offer a premium to get somebody to take those dollars.

Now that I have told you my account names, I expect you to do a google on those names. Read every hit that applies to poker. Are there a few posts that say 'this guy, with THIS account, has been dishonest'?? If so, abort the trade. Do you find my username, but with DIFFERENT accounts? Meaning that I maintain, or have maintained, multiple accounts? That's a great recipe for getting your account tied up for awhile, or impounded, by the poker site. You don't want to trade with such a person.

Is your trading partner in a hurry? Abort the trade. He may have just stolen the money, from someone else, and you're the slob who's driving his getaway car. You don't need your account impounded, once Security on that poker site figures out where that stolen money went.

So let's do this: post your account names, and let's get the trade done. You already know I'm going to Google those names.

Darn, but this post reads like this is a federal disaster area: it's not. This is a great site, with many truly excellent members, who enjoy trading with each other. Everybody has, at one time or another, been stuck with money on site A, but wanting money on site B. Most everybody here will be happy to help out, and will look to you (among others) to help out, from time to time.

But occasionally, a scammer appears in our midst. I just wanted to make sure that you have a healthy scepticism. And we all want you to enjoy, to value, your association with this website.

Thanks! abominable for the warm welcome and offer. I never thought of googling a pokername for info. So if you search my PS name there is a link to a site parttimepoker (online poker staking site) with some negative feedback about me staking myself. My brother and I both play online poker and we staked each other for fun. We live in the same house and share a wireless connection. I know it sounds shady but we were just fooling around. I thought I'd share this with you first and let you know I'm being honest.
Anyways, hope you agree to the trade.

Pokerstars - XVflush (Daly City)
Full Tilt - nut_dawg

How old are you/your bro.

31 & 33. 2 years ago we bought a house with 2 other friends. He rarely plays poker anymore.

I use echecks to deposit on PS. FullTilt no longer offers it and I've been running bad lately on there.

Very nice...definitely sticky potential.
