You have chosen the nite of your largest freeroll to do this maintenance. Why not Wednesday? A lot of us feel cheated. You do this without any warning to your customers.

You could send an email and/or let the forums announce scheduled down time. But you don't. You have no real appreciation for us. We show up Sunday nite and you are just down. Screw us, right?

A pop up at login before the shutdown? Guess we are not worth the bother.

Your apologies are hollow. No real meaning. Why don't you make up for the canceled $500 freerolls by adding their value to the next one you actually play. At this point, that would make next Sunday a $1500 freeroll.

That is how you say you are sorry to people who feel cheated by your actions from 2 of the last 3 weeks.

You affect lives and schedules. Take some responsibility for the trust and belief placed in you.

Greetings,

As it seems you've heard, we are upgrading our servers and for this reason Grand Poker is down. Our first priority is to get the funds transferred back to the player's accounts and then secondly to get the poker room back up and running. The funds should all be returned sometime before the end of this week and hopefully the system will be back up sometime early next week.

Please let us know if you have any other questions or comments.

Regards,
Max

Grand Poker IS NOT getting any praise from their players. If this was a maintenance issue, schedule it on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Here is an excerpt from Card Chat forums at:

I need that money for bills, and there are 4 children here. it is hard enough grinding to get that money up, now I face getting robbed.

Keep trying. I will post when I notice they are back online. For now, they are completely down.

Did the same thing 2 weeks ago. Also on Sunday just prior to their $500 weekly freeroll. Lots of apologies. No actions to prove it.

If they gave a damn, next Sunday would be a $1500 freeroll to make up for the 2 Sundays they scheduled downtime on.

And they offer NO explanations as to what is happening or why. They just screw us because they can. This has to be HUGE as for why they ARE NOT getting player traffic. That and all of their tourneys mostly being turbo, rebuys and addons until level 25 etc... I don't give them high marks or send players their way.

Sometimes, you just can't avoid getting dog crap on your shoes. Just saying.

God bless.

I heard rumors. Reason why 5dimes Poker is being shut down is because there were players that were cheating. Investigation is in place. Some of the names were MrKing, AAAA2, Osprey, and etc.

Here is a quote from "springs" on another forum.

"I read from an affiliate of them that they're migrating the poker room to a different host because of outage problems they had last week"

The truth of the matter is a lot of us are in the dark right now. Its the internet and its poker, we cant honestly expect anything to be fair in all honesty from either of them, weather it is or not, but then combine them and this is what you get.

Thats 3 poker sites now that i have built a bankroll grinding tournaments from the bottom that have just disappeared and ive seen none of the money. First it was Action Poker then Iron Poker (i know alot of you remember that site) and now 5dimes at least for the moment.

Really, i dont need to bring up what happened many years ago, but why not mention Full Tilt, Lock Poker, Absolute Poker and Ultimatebet.

What happened with Ultimatebet could never happen again right ? it is only allowed to happen once in the history of humankind and nobody would ever try to view players cards again or manipulate the game in any other possible way. Do you guys ever think for a moment ?

The best thing to do is to play on regulated poker sites like partypoker and pokerstars because you would never have to worry about anything right?.... Wrong. I have a life time ban from PokerStars because one of their staff told me that they "choose to do the bidding of Lucifer" ( I swear on my life this and everything else in my post is true) and i went around to the tables telling people it was rigged.

Apparently if you mention that some type of online poker game could be rigged on this other popular poker forum you are insane even after all of this. Clearly, it is time for a new way of thinking my friends. Your opinion needs to be respected regardless and after all of this that has happened in the online poker world, you should at least be given the benefit of the doubt.

You may have heard about the massive collusion ring that was just investigated last week and dealt with by the amazing people over at PartyPoker where who knows how many thousands of dollars were involved, i have my thoughts that it was much larger than that but we will never know. This a couple of years after a massive bot ring was found on PartyPoker. Of course it was PartyPoker to the rescue and everything is all good and nothing will or could ever happen again.

The Governments are corrupt as well, even more so, i think alot of us honestly try to immerse ourselves in other things like poker as a distraction from the fact that people like Trump and Trudeau are our leaders. Dont get me wrong, i dont think you people are sheep and i know many other people cant believe it too. One talks about grabbing people in the bloody p*ssy (never mind his politics which is another story for another time). Our very own Trudeau gives millions of dollars to terrorists because they were apparently tortured in prison. Donates hundreds of thousands to the Hillary Clinton foundation and makes a point to dance around in every gay pride parade he can. All the while there are people who are homeless (not because they are drug addicts or uneducated) but because they are victims of unfortunate circumstances, such as former olympic gold medalists.

Anyways, i hope my stay here on CC will be a much nicer one. Of course, I am here because of what happened after grinding for years and still grinding but dont think for a moment that im not here to be a light in the darkness for everyone else as well.

As I started this thread with my current emails with 5Dimes, their reply would lead one to believe they are rebuilding the poker room from scratch. They have been plagued for weeks with problems. This is the second shut down in 3 weeks of this kind. ALL on the nite of their big freeroll.

Me? I don't really trust any of them. Not really. We play there basically because they are the only game in town for us. Greed and dishonesty is rampant in the industry and the governments. All we can do is quit them after making our voices heard.

Who was it that said life is fair? Oh! Thats right. NO ONE! :banghead: :toilet: :bootyshak :sheep:

God bless ya all. :cool:

If you are depositing customers, they should be sad to see you go.

If you are just there for freerolls, don't expect them to cry too much when you refuse to take their free money anymore!

I think it's fine to just play freerolls on a site. That's exactly what I do myself on BOL, SportsBetting, and intertops with the CC freerolls. Let's just be realistic about our (lack of) value to them as customers. A site is not "screwing" anyone by not offering a freeroll, unless it is a special freeroll that someone earned a ticket to by clearing a certain amount of rake.

Freerolls are used to lure depositing customers in. If they don't or can't treat freeroll players right why would they deposit?

5Dimes seems to be ignoring ALL of their customers. Wouldn't you agree?

Not even a minimum of respect for any of their poker players. No warnings, no explanations and no money at the moment.

Do you work for them??? Just wondering.

God bless. ;) :) :cool:

Yes, it sounds like completely unacceptable behavior in general on their part.

Just had to LOL at the entitlement of feeling "cheated" that a freeroll was cancelled.

If you have a balance there that they never restore, then you will have every right to feel cheated, no matter how you earned it.

Do you work for them??? Just wondering.

God bless. ;) :) :cool:

Nah. I freelance for the monster that lives under your bed, and I am the pilot of that helicopter that flew over your house for "no reason". :rolleyes:

I did make a small deposit there once, but decided it didn't have much to offer. But I wish you and everybody with funds there well, of course. I lost a few bucks at Lock Poker when they stopped paying out, so I've been there.

Cheated on a freeroll? LOL They didn't have to give us a Freeroll. So in no way they are cheating us. I only feel cheated because I make deposits and now my money is in GP and can't access any of it.

5Dimes still hasn't transferred my money to the book where I can get it.

I have been trying to get my 81 dollars from 5Dimes for a week now. I got 9 different stories from 6 different reps, yeah, you do the math. Well finally I had had it, and asked to speak to Becky, and I got Percy. He says that poker is down, and they can't access players funds to transfer them. He then tells me that the night before their programmers worked diligently and got 85% of the player funds out of the poker room by using code to flush it out. Then unfortunately he informs me that ironically, I happen to be in the 15% still stuck in the poker software. now I just keep getting assured they are working on it. CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!?!?!?!? AM I THE ONLY ONE EXPERIENCING THIS BULLSHIT? I DON'T THINK THAT EVEN SOUNDS REALISTIC OR POSSIBLE. HOW CAN A SITE NOT BE ABLE TO ACCESS ITS PLAYERS FUNDS AT ANY GIVEN TIME? ALL I WANT IS MY 81 DOLLARS SO I CAN GET MY UTILITIES PAID, AND THESE 4 KIDS DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH NOT HAVING HEAT DURING THESE TEMPERATURES IN THE TEENS. 81 FUNKY DOLLARS! THE DAMN SITE OUGHT TO JUST COVER THAT AND RECOUP IT FOR THEIR OWN REIMBURSEMENT! CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHATS GOING ON, AND WHAT TO DO!?!?!? THX...

They should pay you but these kind of problems where you can't get your funds from your poker room instantly, have happened time and time again for many different reasons, small sites, huge sites, you name it.

Daily expenses and poker bankrolls don't mix well.

Good luck.

Well said, its the internet ( we all know there are no lies on the internet and its totally safe) and its poker, nobody would ever be a shady poker player or owner or cardroom manager or programmer because these people are all saints.

/sarcasm off

Combine the two and you see scams happening every day it seems.

Its either handfuls of sites closing down and leaving Costa Rica or wherever they are from, or big popular sites having bots for years before they are able to ban all of them and then shortly after, collusion rings are found on the same sites. Thats years of anyone winning having an asterisk beside their name, because this happens at the high buyin games so that when that much money is involved in the prize pools for large buying games for multiple years, all the money thats traded hands its corrupt. Just like the governments.

5dimes down

This site seriously has some major issues. Been down for over 2 weeks and they are saying they are updating their servers. Its so obvious that it is more than that and something else is going on. Live chat support is a joke and cant get a straight answer. Their poker room is going to go from 20 people down to 5.

Customer service is a bust. They act like they did not know the poker room was even down. Just hung a sign saying closed on the poker room door and left it there.

If they do open again, it will be quietly without apologies. Like a rat trying to steal cheese.

I have plenty of games on the other sites to keep me busy. Been cashing occasionally. Honestly, unless you still have money there, then they will not be missed too much. Caring should work in both directions and they don't!

God bless. :D :cool:

You pretty much said it. Its amazing how they just dont care. Ive asked for updates numerous times and i get the same response
Grand poker is under maitanance. There is no timeframe we apologize for any inconvenience. I unforrunately liked that room because there are far less suck outs than any other site ive played. Bol acr and sportbetting is impossible to win when going all in on the flop. I refuse to play on acr due to the management staff being incompetent. I had a very bad experience with one of the managers juan carlo and shut my acct down right after the issue.

Everything 5Dimes is up and running on the web. POKER is still down. Must be letting the local kids build the servers by hand using spare parts and chewing gum. Maybe a grand opening in 2018 for a few weeks then go down again for several months.

With BOL/SBP killing their freerolls I would not mind seeing 5Dimes come back with the Sunday $500 they offered and my $26.00 in freeroll winnings.

Not gonna lose any sleep worrying about it.

GL all and God bless. :cool: :D

Another interesting thing is that 5dimes support asks for your password (at least they ask for me). Contacted them today to see if this was normal and they said yes.

5Dimes Grand Poker update

I ran the 5DGP client today and it actually started. They are working on it. A few games in the schedules but not allowing players to log in yet. :D

Could be close...


God bless. :cool:
