Gank and ZeroRake

A former crewmember, Brett Jungblut (aka gank), posted recently on rec.gambling.poker that I was involved with a site called ZeroRake.com. A lot of people have been asking about it, so I thought I'd address it.

The statement is simply untrue. ZeroRake.com was run by an outfit in Vancouver called Las Vegas From Home. They are the same people behind Action Poker. I'm somewhat familiar with them because I met the president, Jake, a few years ago at a gaming industry conference in Toronto. They tried to launch a cardroom without a rake a few months ago, and it failed miserably. I downloaded the software once or twice, but never played there because there were never any games going. Beyond that I didn't have any further involvement in the site.

I don't know where Brett got his information from, but the way he talks it makes me think he's wearing an aluminum-foil hat right now. You're out of the crew, bro... it's natural to be chewing on some sour grapes. But get over it, man, and focus on your own bad self instead of spending time on my shit.

The way your blog reads, you are obviously implying that Gank was kicked out of the crew. From what I understand he left the Crew on his own choosing. Maybe you are the one chewing on the sour grapes of not having his bankroll to play off of? I could care less either way about the Zerorake thing, but I just wish you wouldnt imply something that isnt the case. If indeed he was kickout out, I retract my comments and apologize. Which is it?
