poker is the topic .. so far For all of my highschool years my greatest passion has been the study of no limit texas hold' em. I've read many books on the topic and consider myself to be a bit of an expert. Unfortunately this passion doesn't neatly fit into a college essay like the study of math or music, as there is undoubtedly a bit of a stigma on poker and poker players in general. Now what attracts me to poker is the fact that it is such a skill game. It contains a combination of psychology, math, and logic that simply does not exist anywhere else. I would ideally like to create an essay that emphasizes the intellectual aspect of hold' em, but am a bit concerned. Now my question is do you think that an admissions officer would take a poker essay seriously or do you think they would just look at the title and immediately/ dismiss it? ...........so will they or not idk.......................................................................................................................................
It should be noted that i will not speak of money in the essay. I will talk of it as a purely intellectual persuit.
Thanks very much. ryanbighetty.....................

If I wrote an essay on poker,....it would be about how various poker sites have no clue how to find and keep track of the cheaters who have multiple accounts that play on their sites...
I've even seen folks with multiple accounts wind up on the same table with themselves...
I know this is a fact,...because in the one instance of a player I reported to PokerStars,....they shut down one of his accounts,...and I never saw it again....
You'd think with all the millions of dollars they are making,...they'd come up with a system to fix the problem...

------------ Hey Mobsters,
Thank you very much for your fantastic essays about the online poker. Thanks for sharing with The BankrollMob Community your experiences and thoughts about poker in general!
You know, every game has only one winner. But you have to know that all of you were very good! Thanks for putting the efforts to write your essays and to be a part of this competition.
I really expected much more essays, but probably most of the mobsters are working hard like me, or they just are enjoying their summer holidays & vacantions.
After 12 hours I will inform you who is the winner!
Good luck at the tables! I wish you a great summer! Cool
Best Regards, Peter7878

yout85, now I will send you $50. Please inform me when you get the money! Congratulations to yout85!
Best Regards, Peter7878
------------ I sent $50 to yout85!
------------ I recieved this email from their security:
Hello peter_ivanov,
Your transfer has been rejected as we have determined that the funds you are transferring originate from recent deposits.
Please remember that PokerStars cannot be used as a money transferring service and please also bear in mind that you should only deposit funds when you have the intention to use them at tables.
If you wish to stake other players without playing at the tables yourself, then we recommend that you send funds to these players using a money transfer service outside of PokerStars.

yout85, how to send you the prize then? I have to wait now 48 hours and then withdraw it. But I play only with credit card. I mean I don't have e wallets, MoneyBookers (Skrill).
What should I do?
------------ This is very strange, because this was the first transfer in my life. I mean I never did transfers before. It should be accepted, but they rejected it.

I know they have rules such as - you can't withdraw transferred money, you must play with it... you can't transfer money until your account has been ID verified... and you can't immediately transfer deposited funds.
They've obviously had to tighten the money laundering possibilities after all the issues they've had.
------------ Ok Peter.... I've got a way we can do it.
Can you add @msn.com to my name on here, and everywhere else, and send me an email and I'll let you know what I'm thinking.

My account had been verified 2 years ago. They have all my documents. They said I am a correct player. Well, let's wait 2 days and I will try to transfer it again?? Will this work?
