Not sure if this has happened to anyone else or not, I truly hope not, as it's like a trip thru hell and back.



I've been playing on 123Poker (Prima site) for the past month or so. I've been data mining for the whole time with PokerTracker. I have roughly, over 8,000 players and well over 100,000 hands collected. Yesterday morning I went to go into a small SnG, but got a message that I didn't have enough funds. ??????? Then a screen pops up that www.bets(something) was sold to Bodog and that my money had been transferred to that site. I contacted 123Poker (pissed right off). I got the "we sent e mails to all our customers". BULLSHIT! I then had to call a number only to find out that Bodog doesn't allow Canadian customers, so they sold my account to Bowmans. ????? Next it's off to Bowmans to get the "just download our software pitch and try us". To make this long story shorter, all I wanted was my money back. Well, my rakeback money was there, but not actual poker account money. Now, they are trying to track it down. "But feel free to download our s/w and play with the money that is there". NO THANKS!



Point is, how on earth can they just ship me off to another Poker site without asking me? Should I not have had the choice of moving or withdrawing my money? Anything like this happen to anyone else?

No offense, but I doubt they would ask your permission before selling off their business. Most companies don't want their customers making business decisions for them. I'm sure they did send emails out...after all, this new was all over the poker forums for a while now.

Did anything like this happen to anyone else? Yes, everyone that was playing 123poker. Of course your situation is different than most because you are Canadian. Sounds like they really dropped the ball there. I hope they find your money soon.

You can still withdraw your money, so whats the problem?
