Beat: Transferring my roll from Everest to Full Tilt, transaction got flagged as suspicious. Bank called this morning to confirm that I had made the deposit. Now my Tilt account is frozen with my $600 in it and they want proof of identity, address and ownership of the card. It's my Irish card coz that's where my roll is, but I'm the UK.
So now I have to phone home and walk my Dad through taking a picture of one of my credit card bills, attaching it to an email, and sending it to me. Fun times. Was just settling down to a nice evening of rush poker and this is what happens."I can’t find anyone who agrees with what I write or think these days, so I guess I must be getting closer to the truth." - Hunter S. Thompson

I spun my $20 that Ciaran swapped me up to $160, I'm back at home at the moment, so no laptop to play cash games, just tourney-ing on Stars.
Pretty sure you should still be able to take money by player transfer?

I think I've got everything they need to reactivate the account anyway. I just need the transaction to show up in my online banking and I'll be ok.

Clicked mobile in bottom dropdown menu, cant find a way back to default view.
Using a laptop obviously and not a phone.
What I did was log-out and then log back in and it went to the default skin. Maybe try that for now, until we can fix the mobile skin.

First, Litmanen was signed and sold by Houllier. Crouch was a signing that raised eyebrows at the time, was derided when he went on a long scoreless streak but Rafa stood by him and kept him in the team. When Torres was signed Crouch was not happy to be a backup player and rejected a new contract offer, and then sold for a profit.
Bellamy had been a trouble player at nearly every club he went to, yet was sold for a profit. There was also that golf club incident with Riise.
Morientes never looked comfortable in his half a season there as a lot of imports tend to do.
Keane never got a chance? He started practically every game, did nothing for most of them, and was taken off when contributing nothing with a big sulk on his head. He went back to Spurs where Harry has barely played him this season. Are you saying that the fabled Arry Redknapp is a bad man manager now for not giving him a chance?
Against Wolves Torres, Benayoun and Johnson were out and they are 3 of our most attacking players. It was a trerrible performance, no doubting that, but to say that the top scorers from last season have a manager that don't know how to get his players to attack is stupid. When most teams do stuff it is because of the manager. Wehn Liverpool do things it is in spite of the manager. How is this not hypocritical? Spouting most of the crap that the media come out with is harldly creative.
Villa and Spurs have almost certainly spent more money over the last few years than Liverpool yet have never come close to matching Liverpools league finishing positions. Even this season, in the midst of Liverpools worst season for years, they are barely in a better league position yet there is no public outcry for O'Neills or Redknapps head.
Obviously I am not happy with Liverpools league position, but to attack one individual for something while leaving others unscathed for the same thing is pure hypocrisy. He is a victim of his own, and the clubs previous, successes, as well as a victim of the media at larges dislike of him."Worldly wisdom teaches that it is better for reputation to fail conventionally than to succeed unconventionally." - John Maynard Keynes
