Player pays me back on Full Tilt

That's an awesome story! Never heard of someone doing that in online poker. I wonder what his story is?

Strange. How does the transfer occur on their site? I was not aware that different players could transfer funds directly between their accounts. Could be a ploy to get his account number?

Yes, you can easily make player to player transfers as long as both confirm it. If people know eachother it's an esay way to borrow money or pay off bets they made online or even in person. One time I was down to 10 chips in a 180 person tourney, 1500 starting chips. For some reason one of the players said he would transfer $50 to my account if I made the final table, and another player chimed up and offered the same. Miraculously I won several all ins in a row and ended up winning the tourney (no BS) but of course they both stiffed me.

odd..

Full Tilt poker is a huge scam that stole players money more than the rake that they already take. I have never heard of player giving you the winnings from a hand the one against you. What is this guy Monty Brewster from Brewster's millions?
