Very quickly they became the flagship site for the Winning Poker Network, but then sadly it all started to go wrong. In October 2011, six months after Black Friday, ACR/Winning Poker Network purchased what was then Doyles Room in an attempt to fill the void left by Pokerstars and Full Tilt Poker who were no longer servicing US based customers. If they’re happy to stick their middle finger up at the US authorities after the legal fall out from Black Friday that should tell you something about how they do business. That alone should set some alarms going off. They had their issues on other fronts, for sure, but when podcast king Joey Ingram published his video detailing what he thinks is going on, the industry sat up and took notice.ĪCR is an unregulated online card room.
While certain sites over the years have been tainted with bot allegations more than others, Americas Card Room – ACR – wasn’t one of those at the beginning. As if this wasn’t bad enough news for the online industry, an iPoker member of staff has been caught defending the network while posing as a regular TwoPlusTwo forum member. Americas Card Room has come under serious fire over the last two months in connection with allegations of a bot problem running out of control and flat out cheating via the use of multiple accounts.
