Poker Tabloid Getting Taste of Their Own Medicine.

As a not-so-famous member of the mainstream gambling media, I take great pleasure in being able to slam and criticize people and websites as I see fit - and really see no ramifications from it given that I’m probably not read as much as those “bigger” outlets.  Now for the loyal people who have taken the time to see my work on such pimpin’ sites as PokerOwnage, 4Flush, and a handful of others, I take even greater pleasure in slamming and/or exposing one of my least favorite places as of late - Gambling911.com.  

As a webmaster and writer, I really feel they’re just gambling’s version of a tabloid-fueled, waste of space, every time you read their shit a kitten loses its life, wannabe joke of a “publication” that they’ve somehow managed to turn into a widely-read website.  And with that statement I think I’m being VERY nice, trust me.

Now why all the anger you ask?

Well for one, as I just mentioned in the aforementioned paragraph, they really are a waste of life on the interwebs.  They claim to be insiders to everyone in the industry, yet they seem to be wrong on a lot of their stories, not to mention they make up false ones just to get them even more attention.  I know I’m not really helping in that department given I’m just contributing to getting their name out there even more, but honestly enough is enough.  Take a page from NWP and just :noose yourselves already guys - it’s really not that funny anymore.

G911’s latest debacle and trainwreck of a story regards Bodog and their possible pullout from the U.S. market.  They blatantly went out of their way to produce some half-assed story about how they received “inside” information regarding the layoffs of 200 people within their company, and that Bodog was basically screwed and their U.S. customer base is going to be owned silly very soon.  This was all complete bullshit and my own “inside” source Cheryle from SlotsGeek.com fame wrote this fun article on Fuzion Poker about the whole mess (and mind you, this is actually FACT-based and true, so please enjoy!):

This story was completely fabricated by none other than Gambling 911 who stated “With talks all week that Bodog (www.bodoglife.com) has cut its staff and may possibly be leaving the US market, online gambling affiliates have a tough decision to make.” It further continues to make it appear as though these layoffs were part of the Bodog Life Company.

Bodog did in fact have some layoffs, but none of these cuts were from the actual company nor do they have any plans to move away from the US market.

Direct from our affiliate manager this morning:

 

Bodog has not and is not planning to close its doors to any market. In fact, Bodog is researching new potential markets and will continue to accept new players from all existing markets.

 

Also, in regards to the layoffs, as you mentioned it, it happened out west: Bodog itself has not seen any layoffs. The layoffs in question have actually taken place with a firm that provides Bodog some software and marketing support, but we are confident their service levels to us have not been, and will not be affected.

 

We are still strong, going forward, and working hard

 

We wanted to post this today to let players know that G911 has once again lied. This is just another clear indication that this site is only out for one thing and that’s money. The only intention of G911 is to find a somewhat interesting story, and flip it for their own self-serving purpose. While most online poker sites are trying to provide security to players by writing reviews, publishing factual information relating to the situation with the US, this website displays nothing but eccentric and falsified stories which provides uncertainty to an already uncertain situation.
