Cardspike Poker Warning!

[Randy]

It is really a long story, but Cardspike.com as you guys know has been really slow paying players. Several other webmasters and I have decided to launch a campaign to warn all online poker players to stay away from this site, they are now officially blacklisted.

The owners are the guys at Poker Affiliate Programs.com and Casio Affiliate Programs.com and so far they have stole a ton of money from players and affiliates through this site.

If you have money on there, I would dump that money to another Cake network skin ASAP! This situation will only get worse when they realize their scam is up.

Also, I want to apologize to everyone on this forum who signed up at Cardspike because of my recommendation. Greg Powell who is an old friend of mine was the manager for this room and it was because of him I had faith in this new room. Greg left this room a couple months ago when players and affiliates were getting mislead.

If there is anyone on this forum that has not got all of their rakeback or cashouts from CS, please contact me and I will take care of it for you.

If we leave it on Cake, we're ok right?

Cake or any other Cake skin is fine. Cardspike is on the same network but being run liek shit by some crooks.

Also, we finally pressured Cake Poker and they are stepping in finally! Here is an official statement from the Cake Poker Network:

“The Cake Poker Network has always respected the autonomy of all our network partners and allowed them to operate freely so long as they adhered to network rules. At the same time we also make it an absolute priority to maintain a network of partners based on their fairness & integrity towards both players and affiliates. Due to recent affiliate complaints of delayed payments & in keeping with this philosophy we have decided to conduct our own investigation of all outstanding payments due to CardSpike affiliates and will work with CardSpike management to ensure that all affiliates are fully paid. If anyone has any questions or concerns on this please feel free to contact the CakePoker Network at: partners@cakepokernetwork.net.”

Regards,

Thanks Randy. I'm going to process my withdrawal after work tonight. I still haven't gotten my December rakeback, but it's only like $10 this month.

Stars is great Randy, my screenname is puckhead23 (it's also puckhead23 on Cardspike).

Do you know how to transfer off of Cardspike to, say, Cake? I don't think I've ever seen a transfer option.

You don't. You can get someone who plays on cake to dump it to, then they can transfer it to you on PS or FTP or whatever.
