Idothisfor (staker) VS FLIP_ TOSS (ran off with stake)
First I want to say that Idothisfor asked me to make this thread because he wasn't sure what needed to be in here etc.
Here is the thread but FLIP_TOSS made a very poor rail thread that is hard to follow so I will go though it. http://www.pokerowned.com/forums/f31...for-28036.html
on 5/8/14 at 5:33 AM Idothisfor staked FLIP_TOSS $11 to build a BR playing $.55 $25 GTD MTTs. The stake was to run for 5 days and then they were going to decide to go on or split the profits.
on 5/8/14 from 6:06 AM to 10:23 AM Flip_Toss made 3 updates with BR total and screenshots of hands.
on 5/8/14 at 4:04 PM Flip_Toss Updated the thread saying total balance was $21.61. This would be Flip_Toss' final update.
Idothisfor has made several unsuccessful attempts to contact Flip_Toss. It seems clear the Flip_Toss has no intention of finishing the stake and either 1. Stole the money or 2. Degened the money and doesn't want to own up to it. or perhaps 3. Flip_Toss made a big score and doesn't want to split with Idothisfor.
Flip_Toss has been active on the forums, has been playing in client, and is currently online according to the bubble chat, he is simply ignoring Idothisfor.
Offsite trading was not used but it would not have made a difference as Flip_Toss had no defaults or negative feedback and has been a member since 2011.
Perhaps there should have been stricter guidelines in place for the stake, but I don't see how that would have stopped Flip_Toss from running off with idothisfor's money.
Here is another user scammed by Flip_Toss. In this case the loaner clearly made a bad loan but it doesn't change the face that Flip_Toss scammed. http://www.pokerowned.com/forums/f26...tml#post377328
I think it is very clear Flip_Toss has earned the Ban Hammer.
