Neteller No More

I checked my email this evening only to find an email from Bodog letting me know that they no long take Neteller. While I do not play at Bodog any longer, I was still curious as to why not. Last I had heard it may be as late as the end of the summer before Neteller would suspend U.S. usage because of the UIGEA. I logged on to both Absolute Poker and Pokerstars. While Pokerstars did not have anything on there site (they actually still had it as an option), Absolute had a small note in the deposit section that read:


Neteller is no longer offering its services to US customers.


I then went to Poker News to find the following article:
Neteller Founders Charged with Money Laundering Conspiracy

After reading the article, it is as I suspected. The US government is using some crazy laundering law to hold these guys because they transfered monies from US to offshore to gambling sites. By the way, these guys have not even worked with/for Neteller for a couple of years.

The funny thing about all of this is I had about $25 still sitting in Neteller from about 4 months ago, until Sat 01/13 when I moved it to Absolute. I guess I will now have to find another way to deposit money into my poker sites.

Reed Poker Room Event #1

We had a great first event and we want to thank all those that could make it out Saturday night. Event #1 had 12 players which is a record number for the Reed Poker Room. Cards were in the air just after 6 p.m. as scheduled.

By 2nd session, the two tables of 6 were able to break down to one with ten players remaining.

It got down to the final three a little after 10 p.m. with Brian, Matt and Anthony still going strong. Short stacked Anthony pushed all-in in the dark with Matt quickly calling, since Anthony could have had any two cards. Anthony turns over AA to Matt's 10d6d* flop comes XdAdX turn come Xx and the flop Jd to give Matt the flush against Anthony's trip Aces. This was the first time all night pocket Aces were busted. Anthony finished 3rd for $80.

After much battling back and forth it came down to the final hand Matt ($11,500) pushing all-in with KdAc. Brian ($108,500) called with 5c6c. The flop pretty much sealed the night with Qs 6h 6s with 7s Xs on the turn and river.

Matt finished 2nd for $130 and Brian took home 1st with $210 and the event bracelet.

Congratulations to the winners and thanks to everyone for playing.

* not 100% sure of the cards except that they were diamonds which was the main thing in this hand

The New Year, A New Site

As the webmaster, I thought it would be cool to also have a blog we could all comment to and talk crap about how great a poker player we all are. At the same time we might actually share a bit of poker wisdom that someone can use. Enjoy.
