Hello Mobsters,
I found our beloved Admin Tony covered like a secret agent 007, playing poker and the only words which he used in the chat section were: "BANKROLLMOB.COM".
Definately he is fishing for a new mobsters making advertisements at the poker site.
What do you think about that? Comments on this subject are more than welcome!

Posted by Administrator: Nice photoshop work.
Or somebody is actually playing on that (misusing/abusing) our name.
Tony, the account is real. I made it! I am the secret advertising agent of BankrollMob. Yesterday I made a play money account there, because I am not allowed to open a real money account due to my country of residence. When I made a registration I tried many times to find a table name connected with Peter, but all combinations with Peter were ocupied and then came the brilliant idea to put BankrollMob table name and avatar.
I made a lot of BankrollMob advertisements at the chat section writing many times WWW.BANKROLLMOB.COM All these French people were asking me what is that? I said: "FREE NO DEPOSIT MONEY AT BANKROLLMOB.COM" I did very well playing there.
I sat at the micro limits table $0.01/$0.02 with $2 bankroll and can you imagine after 20 minutes of playing I took all the money of all other players and I made $70 Too bad I am not allowed to play for real money! It is such a pleasure to play vs French fishes. If I had that opportunity probably I would be a millionaire!
When they saw I am playing pretty good, they said they shoud try that BankrollMob thing.
Tony, as you know we have here a thread called: "Are you a BankrollMob fan? Then show it!". Well, this is my way showing that I am a BankrollMob fan! I hope you like it! And you should pay me salary in Mob Points for the efforts.
It is not a photoshop work. It is real. But don't worry, that account will be closed after 30 days, because I am not allowed to play for real money. I mean I am not allowed to make the account verification due to my country of residence, so after 30 days that account will be closed automatically!

Posted by Administrator: Obviously we don't appreciate/allow spam. But how could they not know about BankrollMob, those French players? Shame on them!
Yes, you are right. But when I have BankrollMob table name and BankrollMob avatar it is obvious that the most logical thing to write in the chas is: www.BankrollMob.com It was just a happy advertisement.
Yes, I thought the same. How could they not know about BankrollMob. Now they already know!

I read this a bit before Admin posted the second reply to this post and i was worried about how bad could it be to have someone going along with their trademark on the net, but it must be difficult to control. I mean, they can try to advert all sites with which they have some kind of relation, but it wil always be possible to use their image, one can use any image, that's the truth. just hope no one gives bad idea about this great site!

< lol.... VERY crafty Peter...!!! When I saw that, it made me think of an old tune that used to be on the radio a long time ago, you may have heard it... It's sort of appropriate for your ad and poker...
Look it up on YouTube if you want to hear it...

There's a man who leads a life of danger
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger With every move he makes another chance he takes Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow
Secret agent man, secret agent man They've given you a number and taken away your name
Beware of pretty faces that you find A pretty face can hide an evil mind Ah, be careful what you say Or you'll give yourself away Odds are you won't live to see tomorrow

Swingin' on the Riviera one day And then layin' in the Bombay alley next day Oh no, you let the wrong word slip While kissing persuasive lips The odds are you won't live to see tomorrow

It reminded me of a cartoon series I've been watching lately called "Archer"... It's easily the funniest thing since The Simpsons, and I strongly recommend anyone that hasn't seen it, who has any kind of sense of humour, to check it out

Hello Fakiry,
I don't think this is a bad idea, dude! Just stay positive mate! Positive thinking will save the world!
As you see I am using now PokerStars TEAM ONLINE avatar, but that doesn't mean I am a PokerStars PRO! Am I right? If you like to drink a lot of Coca Cola and if you put an avatar of Coca Cola, that doesn't mean that you are representative or working for Coca Cola, right?
The same is with all these trade marks. People love trade marks. They are connected somehow, they are fans of SUBWAY, Jack & Jones, McDonald's, United Colors of Benetton, PokerStars, FullTilt Poker, Daniel Negranu, Manchester United and so on. The fan list is huge. If I put an avatar of Daniel Negranu, that doesn't mean I am Daniel Negreanu. That means I support him, I am his fan, I like his play, I admire his great work. Am I right?
People are fans of a lot of things. That is way they put avatars or nicknames of these trade marks. But I don't find that as bad influence. It is a positive way to share with the online community that you like, love, support somebody or something. That way all these companies and corporations are more than happy when people advertise them that way. This is positive for them, but not negative.
How can something be negative if you are making free of charge advertisement? Trust me buddy, I've studied Marketing at the University, I know what I am talking about.
I hope now things are clear and there are not misanderstandings. We have to be responsible when we use such trade marks, to support them as I did. I didn't say anything bad about BankrollMob. Just had some fun and explained the French poker community what is BankrollMob free of charge. As I said in the previous post this was my way to show that I am a fan of BankrollMob. No bad intentions here. Nothing to worry about.
Good luck at the tables!
Best Regards,
Peter7878

A sexy sounding woman with a Russian sounding accent named Mira answered. I asked her where she is at,...She said: Bulgaria
Demo, I explained it many times in this forum that Party Poker Support is from Bulgaria. They have office here. I worked for Party Poker in 2009. They teached me how to play poker! This Bulgarian Party Gaming office is the problem for Bulgarians, because we are not allowed to play at this poker room becuase to avoid frauds between emplyees and players!
