COOL HAND POKER CON ARTIST SITE!!!!!!!!

#1 29th October 2008, 10:25 AM

I'm from South Africa and found that Cool Hand poker is the worst possible sit to play at. When I opened my account South Africa was on the list to state wher I'm from. With South Africa beig on the list, I assumed that they allow players from here since onlile play is allowed in South Africa. When I claim my prices, I'm refused my payout!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That makes me sick about these kind of sites!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just shows you how many people they are conning out of there money and prices!!!!!!! May Cool hand Poker die in peace!!!!

Hey WitKnight...I checked out the site, and although it looks like a good site even I know you can't play on there...oh yes, and online Poker in SA is illegal...read a bit more buddy...

The bill will go in to effect once it has been approved by the President of South Africa. (RSA Parliament Approves Internet Gambling Law to Counter Crime, THE MERCURY (Durban), May 19, 2008, Open Source Center No. AFP20080520543005.)

MiaRa the bill was passed on 2 June 2008. Why you think Piggspeak and Silversands is NOW allowed to sponsor shows and advertise on TV????

Wow ,
I'm sorry to hear that.
I have recently downloaded it myself but, luckiy I have not deposited.
Because of what they have done to you, I won't deposit either.
We need to take a stand against this type of abuse....
I hope you figure out how to get your money.

For those who wonder whether Cool Hand is legit...it is! Just cashed out $330 from a $20 investment. Ring games are soft...Limits are low but action is decent. Payouts come in the form of ACH wire and although it takes 2 weeks they do pay out and answer emails. This is a great site as long as you are able to play legally in your country.
