Beware of chobo1

Long time poster at 2+2..mostly lurk here. I saw chobo1's blog and was reading about thailand and remembered something familiar about the name. I've scrolled further down his blog and found his stars name is indeed chobopoker_r.

Beware of this guy...possibly may attempt to scam/steal/roll another stake in the future. Just wanted the poker community to be aware of this guy.

dramaaaaa

If this is true, why would he show any remorse? Its over the internets, you wont ever see him in person, so his probably laughing right now, they are fools for staking a stranger they dont know in person, or really trust beforehand.

Quit crying and deal with it imo, if you get the money back, be thankful, if not then thats too bad.

Mayzerg, fraud and stealing not good enough reasons to show remorse for you? Ah it's over the internet and they don't know each other well so that somehow makes it all right?

And what is with your attitude? He obviously knows that there is almost no chance that he will ever see his money. I genuinely believe that his main objective here is to warn everyone else.

iops sig always gets met

How the fuck did you get from this that hes crying? hes doing the community a service by warning about a scammer, which is what everyone should do unless they get some sadistic pleasure from seeing other people get scammed.

I'm tired, havnt slept much and in a grouchy mood I agree his main objective is warning people here, so i guess i should cut the guy some slack, but trying to set up payments to get his money back every week is major LOL in my opinion, he'd be pretty lucky if chobo1 gave it all back.

I guess im just surprised/annoyed, that people still get scammed, so i have no sympathy for them.

Sorry if this makes me sound like a dick, its just we've been over this so many times... atleast once a month.

Its surprising that people still get scammed? - no
Most people scammed are just retarded? - yes
Is it normal for ppl not to show remorse when stealing because its the internetz - no

There are bright people that think they will never get scammed but still do. Scammers need to be identified and banned immediately from the community to prevent them from obtaining information they could use to exploit others, provided there is sufficient info to do so.

props for posting the info OP

Actually, I'm all for giving shady characters a different colour name on the forum to identify these guys or have some kind of list. The counter argument is of course that if they're easily identifiable, they'll just hop onto a new handle anyways... so I dunno, just avoid staking people you dont really know I guess

and why wouldnt they hop to a new handle when u mark their old one? makes no sense

i don't know why everyone instantly just start berating someone for getting scammed then trying to warn people. It's not gonna be so funny if it happens to you.

too many fucking tools on this site.

Note: I am not the one who staked chobo and was screwed. Just recognized his name and wanted to warn people here of any dealings with him as they may not be aware of what he did to someone over at 2+2.

hes obviously chobopoker everytime I see his blogpost, the way he brags about his poker related stories, it's obviously him

because its harder to scam when theres a massive sign on his chest saying "I'm a scammer, dont stake me"?

everything from thailand is a TRAP!

I daresay you failed a bit there with the sarcasm detector, gawdawaful...

Anyway, thanks OP for the info.

huh, i missed the chobopoker story and why he was banned? I thought he was banned just for the sake of him being a complete retard/idiot/troll in LP...

Taken care of

chobo has been here under the new name for quite a while, and I know at least a couple of the mods are aware it is him, not like he is being very sneaky. Since his old account is completely nuked and all posts removed, I have wondered why he's gotten by under the new name at all.

Possibly an air of forgiveness? Second chances are such sweet deals.

thailand can change a person a lot. lol

you can never be sure with baal though!

didn't sound sarcastic to me

it wasnt but i said would instead of wouldnt.

If you think banning them is useless cuz they will jump to a new handle then marking them as scammers is just equally as useless cuz they can jump to a new handle too.

Yah thats kinda what I mean. Even if you mark them, they'll just hop to a new one which renders the whole process moot. Same can be said about warning threads like this, but the population need to know at some point I suppose

yes these threads are needed to raise awareness and burn the person and they need to be banned too, when i was a mod nobody told me about chobo's new handle, i would have banned him right away

I have actually had chobos AIM for like 3/4 years and use to talk to him all the time. So when he asked for a stake, I felt more comfortable staking him then I did for other players in the past, People get themselves in bad situations and do things they wouldn't do sometimes. We had other horses who have done similar things but after confronting them they do show remorse and have payed back there debt. Many players do not want to ruin there reputation over a stake. It is just irritating seeing him posting about parting all time while he claims to be so broke that he cant send anything for payment.

Hopefully Marcel will make this right.

[ ] Scamming someone for 1550$ --> fucking victoria secret models.
[ ] there are beaches in bangkok.
[x] made my first checkboxes.

Altough I dont stake people at all so im not in danger, its nice to see that you warn others of staking him while at the same time acknowledge that he is likely to try and get a stake soon. A less honorable guy would keep his mouth shut in hopes of getting him to repay the original stake with winnings from his new stake.

gl hf, i hope you get some rungood out of this for being nice.

Someone should invent stabbing people over the internet. Maybe put in a random factor to the stab-module so you don't know who it is.

I've had him on facebook for a while and I can confirm that he seems as retarded irl as he is on this site

you can be happy...
one year ago or smth i was in contact with him via msn and he told me he got scammed for about 2-4k. some stranger told him he gets staked as a pro for a random client with 100% rb and a bankroll of about 20k but he needs to send the 2-4k first.

so looking back it hes still in the red when it comes to scamming! haha

Lets keep thread on topic plz, and not reminisce on the hay days when Baal had mod powers

lets make fun of him in the mod forum

PM chobo sent me this morning on 2+2:

hey man, thanks for getting me banned on LP lol. but it doesnt actually help with me paying u back. its funny how u made up like i spent all ur money on partying and playing the big sunday mtts. first of all, the sunday mtts a friend invested 90% so i only paid like $20 to play them. 2nd of all, partying in thailand is dead cheap so saying i spent all ur money on partying is a complete lie. btw, i only have $500 bankroll and i need to pay $600 rent in a week. Glad to see your still determined to make everyone hate me. It would def be easier to pay u back if i were still living with my parents. :/

And my response to him:


I didn't get you banned from LP. As you can see in your blog other members brought up the fact that stole money before I even knew you were still on there. Your actions or lack of them is the reason for everything that has happened. You need to grow up. It doesn't matter how cheap it is, the fact is you are spending money that does not belong to you. Even if you sent us $50 a week, it would be better than not communicating and acting like you don't care ether way to pay us back. I never wanted to ruin you or anything, you stole money and do not seem to care to pay it back. If you ever pay it back then I will post on here and liquid that you did.

yeah i had this guy on msn for a while, until i realised he was retarded and deleted him immediately, especially his super retarded blog posts about life in thailand.
