You just did what now?

He's saying he just took .36 on the dollar for Lock money. Talk about a sinking ship. Not sure how much lower than that FTP money went.

 

[hackmeplz]

I got a bunch of RoW FTP money at 20c

 

[hackmeplz]

But yeah seriously stay the **** away from Lock it's clear they're either corrupt and incompetent or just really really really incompetent.

 

[hackmeplz]

That said I'm buying Lock money at 5c on the dollar pm me if interested

Was that about the bottom of the market for it?

Yeah it was literally the day government called FTP a ponzi scheme publicly.

 

[LuckyChippy]

Pretty sick investment, would be incredible if you were RoW yourself.

 

[WVHillbilly]

And still it was only 16 cents lower than Lock who is fully operational (well except for a functioning cash out mechanism).

As far as FTP knows I am

meh one of the main reasons I was buying at that point was because

1. Worst case we were still likely to see some money from the government
2. It was pretty much immediately said by everyone who knew what was going on that it was actually not a ponzi scheme and the government was just using sensationalist language.

#1 was actually a huge part of it though. If I buy at 20c and the worst downside is I get 10 of it back that's a pretty sick investment imo. That said maybe I just got lucky I made a few other purchases/wagers throughout the process betting on the side of the players that weren't so good (bought a US account at 80c immediately following BF and bet at 1:1 that at least one US player would be paid back end of 2012 lol)

What can I say guess I'm just an optimist.

There just isnt any logical explanation except they are about to go under/are completely incompetent for it taking more then 3days for non US player to cash out.
Any other site euro players will be able to cash out in 0-3days with online wallets/direct bank transfers and 2 weeks tops for checks.
Lock is still taking like 2-3months for international players which is just ridic and has to be some sort of cash flow issue.

Yeah it's REALLY bad. I had a couple hundred on there and luckily (for me) xxdeuces brought it at face value just before they went to complete shit.

 

[LuckyChippy]

You've had his pants down there.

 

[WVHillbilly]

Yeah but he likes it!

 

[xdeucesx]

I would respond w/obligatory " f u "

but I sold it at face value to a friend of mine. Didn't get face value for the rest of my roll though

I sold at .6 /.65 /.5 and I thought I was getting killed. Lock is just a sinking ship, only a matter of time before they completely go under.

 

[WVHillbilly]

Wasn't meant to be a dig, just a brag that I got out just in the nick of time really.

Glad to hear you didn't have to take a loss on what you got from me at least.

 

[LuckyChippy]

If you're RoW it seems like a pretty decent way of making money.

 

[TylerN]

ya make money off us US players

 

[WVHillbilly]

If you're RoW it seems like a pretty decent way of making money.

Maybe except even RoW players are taking a chance with Lock $$s and even they are waiting 5-6 weeks for Moneybookers, etc.

 

[LuckyChippy]

Ahh, didn't realise it was quite that bad.

That's what poker's all about, Tyler. Still pretty shitty tho.

Try 3 months. And a lot of RoW players are waiting 2-3 months only to have it rejected for no good reason.

Wow. Didn't realize it was quite that bad.

 

[hackmeplz]
