Annie,

I just listened to the pokerroad interview. (http://www.pokerroad.com/ )

where you claim this brainwash guy has been trying to blackmail UB.


Can you explain why the big name players have cash transactions with the fraudulent accounts?

If you can comment on someone who is trying to blackmail the company you surely can comment on the evidence he provides.

As someone who has lost $40k + pots at 50-100 on ultimate bet, I would just like to say that i think annie duke and ultimate bet are both pond scum.

Darth Fear: 

There's a reason why Annie does not post on 2+2. But she posts here. Even though many people disagree with her, for the most part they keep their crititism on the up and up. And stay away from personal hateful attacks. Let's keep it that way.



LOL why, so we avoid the questions that get closer to the truth...obv fromt he epic 2+2 thread and the cover story it is over...If you are stupid enough to even have money on that site, you'd better get it off now....I cashed out my 4K in nov of 07.....

gg UB...I hope you crash and burn you cheating fks

I agree with you Chaos, in that UB really screwed up. There's obvious questionable activity going on by former (or current) employees and/or owners, if not outright cheating. I don't believe it's a good idea for anyone to give UB/AP any of their business. With that said, in regards to Annie, there's a big difference between posing "questions that get closer to the truth" as you say (which I wholeheartedly agree with) and "personal hateful attacks" on Annie.

It's my understanding that Annie does not post on 2+2 because on that site, people were attacking her on a personal level and not on the issues. Plus there were no mods to control or edit the threads to prevent that from happening. Here on pocketfives, Annie put herself out there by responding to very damaging accusations. She didn't have to do it, and God knows just how difficult it must be to defend a rotten site like UB. I believe everyone should be treated fairly, and I'd rather that she give us some information, rather than no information.

At some point though, Annie has to put aside her personal relationships with the management of UB and realize that business is business. At the end of the day, if Annie has any doubts at all, she should do what's best for herself. She's gonna have to come to the realization that she cannot put her face and name to an organization that continues to have integrity issues, customer service issues, and accountability issues. It is not only bad for her, but it is bad for online poker in general to accept these failures that UB/AP have done as an organization. The sooner that the players, and the celebrity player representatives leave the site, the sooner we can all move on. Annie - you tried to make it work and have done your best, and I completely commend your loyalty, but sometimes a bad thing is a bad thing is a bad thing. It's time to move on.
