Professional poker player Tony ‘Tony G’ Guoga responded today on his blog to charges, raised on various poker forums, against online poker room T6 Poker. Guoga recently signed a one-year deal to endorse the room.
Questions about the credibility of T6 were first raised by PokerWiki in their article on T6, located here. Excerpt:
Other notable characteristics of T6Poker include:
1. The client is downloaded from an anonymous file sharing site (Rapid Share),
2. The company’s Internet domain is registered anonymously,
3. The company (AlistonPrice) can be found on the warning list of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (Finansinspektionen)[4] but changed its name in November-December 2007 to 1oz Group.
Guoga addressed a few of the allegations above in his blog post. Excerpt:
I have seen this claim before but this is untrue, the owner of T6 Poker is not hidden. There is an attack on this person by some people in the poker industry. It’s pretty normal and you can find people bashing and poker site shredding in every forum on the internet. I have not had one person say that he or she was scammed by T6 Poker.
I am not involved in T6 Poker – other than being part of the Pro Team. I don’t own any part of the site. When I signed a deal with them it was a professional deal to play for the site for 1 year and I will evaluate everything with time.
