I have to ask

Don´t know about the past leagues, but I will see it regarding the last spring league, because our team made 3rd place.
All I can say is that I already made some nice money by playing the games and reaching some Final Tables. Winnings of every single tourney are directly transferred into the Carbon player account.

It is definitely posted at this "other site" it is titled "poker.org is a scam to get traffic" and here is what is said."Quote"
Seems that [link removed} is full of scams and have created a similiar crewcup game to increase traffic and build their banks.
They promise cash but the truth be known its just that an empty promise.
Recently a handfull of members here went and kicked ass in this competition basically winnin all the funds for 5 of 6 positions. However when i did a little research not only havnt they paid for last months series which went 4 months or maybe 5. They also havnt paid for the previous series so this is about 9 months no payments which seems like a scam to me.
Be very carefull is the meanin of this post and dont get your hopes up not all forums are as honest as xxxxxxxxxx.
Thanks for readin the Iceman tellin it how it is as usual.
The guy is pissed cuz he got banned from here for legit reasons and he shoulda been banned long before he was.

Amazing that the guy can be banned and STILL get in the threads and talked about. I wouldn't worry about getting paid Igotapair. I know people from two series ago that made the money and got paid, no problem. And as far as making it into the top three teams or top three individuals to get in the money, the odds are against you. :) As far as the individual games and the prize money from those, there has never been any problem getting that money, and therein lies your best chance of making money playing poker here. Good luck to you and your team, hope you have fun here.

It must be so difficult to control negative posts like this given the opportunities that exist for someone to post whatever they want on another forum. It is a human failing that when someone is upset they want to hit back and in the real world this is controlled by the consequences of revenge. In the virtual world there are no consequences - well none which carry any real deterrent anyway. The guy who posted on the other forum does himself, the members here and the members on the other forum a dis-service if he thinks that his words will influence anyone. In my experience poker players and forum members are quick enough to make up their own minds when they feel they are being abused in some way. I am sure that is not the case here and I am looking forward to getting into my first league series.

Good luck if you choose to play in these games or not, Igotapair. Not sure what is to gain from posting in this forum what other forums are saying.
I personally don't care and I'm sure many others feel the same way...it is what you make of it..good, bad or indifferent.
And I totally agree with you 'wingman' and 'casinocrazys'... like, really???

I don't about the leagues prizes being paid or not, but every tournament had its winners and all ITM's here got their money as the tournament paylist stated; every time I was ITM I got my money. For me, that's enough, I'm easy to please. For the team side of the leagues, all I was interested was the "fame & glory" thing, aka bragging rights; that's all about poker to me.

I do not know if teams have received money, I do not know in any team, finalist team members can confirm or deny, but discussions on this forum, I understand that all players are satisfied and have received awards at the end of each series shows the first 10 or 20 players who came into money. I think someone was mad at this site and wanted to strike hard at it. We opinions of those who have won the league last. I'm sure there will be positive

judy this is not a smear campaign, notice i left out all information not pertaining to .org. i was merely asking a question that i think deserves an answer, an answer from people involved not people that have an axe to grind. i was very careful not to post the actual post made, just referenced it. i did not smear anything anywhere.260

obviously my point was missed. obviously i must be the only person that thinks for himself also. i heard some info that made me concerned about something i made a choice to play. it raised some concerns so i wanted answers, should i have posted in the other forum asking this same question, has anyone from the previous series been paid? do u think i wouldve gotten any responses answering me or just people adding their own bull. which if u read the thread in the other forum, that is what is exactly happening.I personally don't care and I'm sure many others feel the same way...it is what you make of it..good, bad or indifferent.

i stand behind my decision to ask a question here and not there, also i never mentioned any names, so i was never wrong. this is a .org league and i i had a .org question. the three of u r making worse than i am. really!

i figured the $150 for each tourney is distributed by the poker room and i wassnt worried about that. i assumed it operated like any other freeroll. i was asking about the prize money for the top teams and such and that wouldnt be till after all is settled.

"I know people from two series ago that made the money and got paid, no problem." I believe THAT was an answer to your question, but you chose not to see that. And, for the record, I was making a joke about it being against the odds. Obviously someone doesn't have much of a sense of humor. I won't make that mistake again, that's for sure.

at first i wondered if i should say anything and just wait to see if the payouts get made because i read the post stating they should be done by next week. after sitting with it, i decided to ask. i figured i would go to the source to get the answers. so to anyone that played the series before this last one and was fortunate/skilled enough to be on a winning team, i ask, have u been paid? i would like to know if i am wasting my time or not. thank you in advance.
