Anybody been turned away by Thegreek for winning too much too fast?

pico · 01-27-2008, 02:59 PM

no, and never heard of anyone who did

Haha. Yes, it happens. Spiro is human and he can get pissed at you for various actions.

It's not about how much you win, it's how you win it. But yes, it happens.

I only know of one SBR poster that ever received "the boot" from TheGreek, and that was RickySteve. But I can't really remember exactly what the problem was.

Usually the only thing I know of in regards to why TheGreek would boot/limit a player is if they were playing steam after already being issued a extremely strict warning.

If I remember right, he requested his bet history, and they booted him. Surely there was more to it than that, nevertheless that's ridiculous.

That right Durito.

I remembered it was something really odd like that, but I just couldn't remember exactly what the reason was at the time I made my original post.

I know lots of players who have had their account limited. The players agree to certain restrictions, and the account is re-enabled. Restrictions like don't chase steam, don't double-pop props with friends, or don't bet wise-guy teasers.

I know of one poster here who was issued a warning. As long as he doesn't chase steam he's fine. I think he had his limits reduced but I can say 100% on that.
