Default Freerolling with BBP

I love this poker forum as it definitely had many loyal players that I have been able to play in tournaments on a weekly basis with familiar names. Since Titan Poker has banned many of us and all US players are off of the network I am hoping to see BBP move to another poker network. I don't think Titan Poker did everything they possibly could to stay running. They are a big enough company to have stayed running with the US. I think they pretty much let go of the US as they did not appreciate our business. Considering how they screwed over 1000 players out of the 500K Refer A Friend Freeroll. They made a lot of money of US players to sponsor this freeroll which is why I have been in contact with their gaming commission in which I filed a wrongful doing against Titan Poker. I know there already have been many others who were affected that did the same. There support team got pretty bad toward the end of closing ties with the US. I could admit they did not end ties in an orderly fashion. Support was very unhelpful wish had told me many lies and at times took things as children. I was hung up by one support member 6 times over the phone. 2 seperate days same staff member. They are absolutely running a very unprofessional business once they got word that they would not accomodate the US anymore. As far as freerolling tournaments go I hope to see BBP move to Absolute Poker or poker.com in the near future as we all could slowly find a new home. I am currently playing on AP, poker.com, and Fulltilt. Since freerolling is limited I have been spending more time at Fulltilt at ring games. Anyways I hope to see BBP in the near future. Keep up the great forum Guru and the rest of the moderators of BBP.

I concur. I have also noticed the decline in participation of the board due to the pull out of titan.

My vote would be for poker.com,,, but anywhere that keeps the board going is good by me.

great post smooth.. i found out that this forum become little "dead" after that ban came and we can't play anymore on titan.. i really liked titan, but after i founded some other sites, i'm starting to think that titan isn't best site that exist.. i'm really sorry but i think we'll soon find the way to play together again..

today is my first day playing on Full Tilt (with my BBP prize money, thx BBP) and i must say that this site is awesome. it's well organized, great tourneys, good blind structure, not too much bad beats and fantastic forum! i think i'll stay there for long time to play and hope we'll see there..
count on me for the next event (like elon said we can make all Buy-in events) and i will be there to take your stacks!

keep up the good work Guru!

Hi fellas,
Thanks for supporting the site. I have been busy finding sites that would allow us to host freerolls. And after talking to 5 major poker sites, it seems that Poker.com will be suitable for future tournaments.

I can't commit to a new league ATM but we could definitely organize alternating freerolls and buy-in events. So, one week we have $100 freeroll and next week we have a $3 buy-in event.

What do you guys think about this?

This sounds good to me. I'm still not completely comfortable with the interface of Poker.com (it seems clunky to me, and is distracting) but I'll get used to it, especially if it's our best choice for playing together.

Wow, glad to see things are still progresssing. I have been offline for a week, got really sick while betting the horses last week. Glad to be back, and talking with you all again. BBP, it really doesnt matter to me where we get to play, Poker.com or elsewhere, as long as we can all play! I enjoyed playing with you guys/gals, and am looking forward to doing so again. And the $15 I got for 5th place in last season of FullTilt Poker didnt hurt my feelings either!
