I have been on this site for almost three years and until about 2 months ago, I really didn't care what went on. Now I am starting to notice something and I would like some opinions here. Why is this site allowing kids(under 18) allow to play here?? Now I do know some of them who are and are ok, but there are alot of them who have no idea what Texas hold em is. They are normally the ones who push all-in every time. Will someone just enlighten me why we all have to put up with this? It is starting to become a harassful site and seeing some names and actions that are really inapproiate. Please respond to this forum or to me in private, thanks gpokr and have a good day.

GPokr is a free poker game and everybody is allowed to play. I'm 17 myself and I know others under 18 who can play and don't push all in always. p.s. some adults misbehave too :D |

at 10:28 AM, Thursday May 21, 2009 EDT I said some of you are ok, and I know all 3 of you that play here and have no problems with it. If you read it carefully I did say some of you are ok. Blizz, Od, W.R, dr.zoid etc(who I have seen or known played since I have started are ok). There are just some newbies who think they know how to play but dont.

I am 17 and proud You arrogant son of a (****) the question i have is why do you insist that these "kids" be banned from gpokr? Are you ashamed that "kids" beat you? or do you just want a reason to blame all your problems on? and since when have you been an agist. BY THE WAY, gpokr is not only a place to play Texas hold em but a place to LEARN how to play. my motto is "learn by doing" ALSO it is not a bad strategy to all in on hands when you only have 1.5k. It gives you a chance to double or even triple up with no consequences |

at 9:29 AM, Friday May 22, 2009 EDT Gurgi, I have no issue with you whatsoever, but the point I am trying to get across is this. The new kids(not yourself and alot of others who I have known since I have been playing) are just pushing and taking chances on any two given cards. NO WHERE ON THIS PAGE DOES IT SAY "HOW TO LEARN". I am entitled to my opinion and wanted feedback from others. Do you like been talked to like an idiot? Do you enjoy being harassed for no reason at all? Age is mainly a number, BUT when it comes to kids coming on here and starting all sorts of crap; it makes the site dull. I come on here to talk with friends and have a good time but lately havent seen this. So, if you want to discuss this further; find me and we can discuss it.

at 5:41 PM, Friday May 22, 2009 EDT perhaps you shouldnt say kids but say new players..and new players are needed to help the site grow. Dont you think ur asking for a lot..this is a free site for a reason and Gpokr is a place for people to learn poker. i know this is where i learned and many others. Perhaps, a better idea is make private tables? maybe paying $1 for ?
..im still mad at your idea so please try and take a different approach |
