Following recent issues with deposits not being credited that stretch back to the start of July, a handful of players on Two Plus Two called for a boycott of Lock Poker.
That was back on July 13th or thereabouts. So how’s that working out?
According to traffic statistics via PokerScout: Not so great. In fact, traffic for the days since the boycott started is essentially unchanged week over week, and Revolution has managed to hold on to their spot as the largest US-facing online poker room by real-money traffic.
A quick survey of the Twitter accounts of Lock pros provided in the boycott thread failed to turn up any tweets or conversations regarding the boycott. The last tweet from long-time Lock pro Eric “Rizen” Lynch on July 8th suggested nothing but business as usual:
The 2p2 thread did manage to wrangle to promise of a forthcoming statement out of a Lock Poker rep:
The delay has been because its coming through several layers. It starts with the software provider, then comes through our management down to us reps to pass on to you guys.
We have been pushing for an official statement all week and from the correspondence Ive seen today we should have a statement for you shortly.
As of the time of this article, that statement has yet to be issued.
