I always found Black Friday to be a funny reason for the shutdown.  Not funny ha ha just strange to me.

I left online poker in 2008/2009 after 60 minutes published its first story >>>

"...[LEFT][COLOR=#202022]As [/COLOR][/LEFT][B][I]60 Minutes[/I] correspondent Steve Kroft[/B][LEFT][COLOR=#202022][FONT="foro-light"] first reported last November(2008), a small group of people managed to cheat players out of more than $20 million.,,,"

[/FONT][/COLOR][/LEFT]At the time I was working 50-60 hours a week and had no problem depositing a couple hundred bucks at a time into the site usually once a month or two months.  
I was a recreational player who thought he was better than he was,  But for me, it was cheap entertainment at the time

So when I saw the scam happening I backed out entirely until about 2012 oblivious of black Friday.  But only playing on WPT

I eventually learned about other sites but I decided to never deposit again.  Consequently only allowing myself to build a br from freerolls.

This is how I found cardschat!  and it is so much more than a forum to grab a password.  I have met some great people here from behind my screen and there is an immense amount of information here to help anyone be a better poker player if you put the time into it.

So for me I joined for the freerolls and stayed because of great content and people
