As my faithful readers know, I’ve been playing no limit hold’em for a while (since August 8th) at JonWoodGaming (henceforth JWG), a relatively new online flash poker room, and have been doing relatively well.  I started with a $5 no deposit bonus and last week I was up to about $146.  You can read about my exploits at JWG in previous posts (here and here and here).  And then two days ago the most UNBELIEVABLE thing happened.  I noticed a major bug in the JWG poker program, a bug with serious $$$ implications.

$126.  That’s what my present bankroll is at JonWoodGaming, a flash online poker room, much like Pitbull Poker.  

And it all started with a $5 no deposit bonus.  That’s over a %2500 increase.  Anyone want to sponsor me for WSOP 2007?

I have lost my patience with LTD Poker. I thought I was going to get a $50 bonus from them for signing up with Noble Poker, as indicated on their website. However, after about a month of waiting I have received nothing, nada, zilch. I would get replies to my email querries, initially indicating that everything looked good and that I should get my money as soon as the “stats” came through. But after about a dozen emails with different changing stories I have come to believe that I’ve just been getting the runaround. LTD most recently told me that they would deposit the bonus money into my Neteller account, but I needed to have it certified. I did this, and then they said it needed to be a Premium account. It is not stated on their site that you need a Premium account.  Americans, like myself, cannot get Premium accounts.  And according to Neteller people, the Premium account has more limitations than a certfied account, and so there is no valid reason why LTD cannot make a peer-to-peer transfer. I let LTD know all of this.  In fact, I copied and pasted to one of my emails the chat discussion I had with a Neteller official.  I never heard any reply back from them.  I think that we have good evidence that LTD is a bogus affiliate.  If hell freezes over, and I get the bonus, then I will gladly retract these comments.  But until then, I suggest that you don’t waste your time with them.  You will just end up being extremely frustrated.
