I can’t enter that site, it says “We're sorry, but something went wrong. We've been notified about this issue and we'll take a look at it shortly”. I never heard about Nick Weatherall, doesn't appear on portuguese national tv, but it seems to me that you were probably “attacked” by a spammer. Once i received na e-mail from a Microsoft director and, as i had previous contact with the company, i didn´t suspected of someone trying to fool me. But the mail said i should contact them to receive a compensation. I decided to look for the person that signed the mail on Facebook and i found him. So i contacted him and he told me that wasn’t na oficial contact. So i decided not to answer the email. Hope not, hope you can come here later telling us the oposite, but i think you just lost $98…

If it is Nick Wealthall you're probably going to be okay. I've had one of those emails via another poker forum. It's been given the okay on that forum by Joe Beavers and Barney Boatman. Both well respected players

I don't know why you'd pay $98 for him to improve your game, he often jokes about his own poker ability. He's not even a poker player hes a poker presenter who plays the odd game here and there. Doomdy has earnt more playing poker than he has.

Well ... it sounds really weird although the site works. I don't know if he gave you a user and a password. If so, you can try to log in. Customehub main page says the they had issues with the server. I hope you weren't cheated and you can access from now. Good luck but, just in case, for the next time, double-check everything.

Hmmm! Think its always a bit dodgy people offering services like these. Interesting how a presenter can put himself up as an expert to help people improve their game that he merely presents. MAybe he should take to the tables if hes so good.

I checked into this and keep getting kicked to a google page lookup. I never heard of this guy / announcer either so I'm thinking you must have gotten scammed.
Have you investigated the source that you paid out to through a credit card or money order. There could be some way to track this!

this may answer all questions, it was a guy who I have seen on tv poker programmes many many times, I WAS 100% sure about his credibility to offer items to buy online, that wasnt a problem untill the site was not available and to try later, eventually I have logged on watched a couple of items and not had any info on playing my game better as of yet, I have a guaranteed disclosure to redeem my payment of I cancel before the 30 days trial period so hey why not I will have a good look at whats on offer and if it aint good it is returned with a full refund.

Posted by zeroster: Oh he's for real right enough. Whether or not his advice is worth paying for though is another matter.
Thats indeed right,for $98 you could have gotten almost a 1 year subscription on a proper training site that would have given you much more value (in terms of content) than what he probably offers. Proper training sites are always better than content offered by live players,because the content you receive is specialized for games you play. Live players usually undervalue certain stuff like having a good shove/fold play and stuff like that,because the gameflow is totally different to online play,and thus the overall play is different.

I am glad to hear everything is running now as you expected. Now you only have to decide if the product you bought is worth the $98 you paid, if not you always have the chance to send it back and return the Money. But it would be better if the product suits your intention, after all that’s why you bought it, not to make any kind of experience with the site.
