Hi, I'm writing this to warn people about the Spade Club site. This is not just sour grapes from poor finishes or bad beats. I actually placed 4th in this months 30k for $1500 so it is possible to win money on there, but have yet to see my check for 2 1/2 weeks. One other player on there told me he has been waiting for 7 weeks! I assume I will get paid eventually, but there are several other issues I have with the site.
One of the other problems is the software. In $500 daily tonight I literally could not bet! The bet button wasn't even there. I could call, fold or raise. I have a FH I have to check and hope some else bets so I can raise. Obviously not real helpful to my game. Then about a month back we were down to 300 or so in a bigger tourney and the whole site went down. A screen came up saying they would reschedule it. So the next night it's reopened for everyone and I'm starting over in a field of 1200 or so. Not a good solution!
The play on there is horrendous, which should be a good thing but it just doesn't seem to be on there. I won't bore you with all the bad beat stories because we all have enough. It is advertised as a learning site but I wouldn't even use it for that unless you want to learn how to play bad. The POY last year said he played 15 hours a day and made 1200 for the year, lol. I just wanted to warn others about Spade Club before they make the mistake to join. Thanks, McQ
PS. They also refuse to give out membership numbers or payout percentages. Would you play a $10+$8?
