RIP NeverwinPoker, 2004-2009
NeverwinPoker.com, the filthiest, most offensive poker site on the internet — filled with racist, sexist, drug-addled degeneracy and perverse nudity that provided a voice for a notably vile, socially maladjusted segment of the poker world — is no longer, or at least no longer what it used to be.
Tony G and the semi-corporate interests at PokerNews, who bought a controlling interest in the “gossip site” two years ago, have turned off the infamously uncensored forum. It simply wasn’t “converting” supposedly.
But don’t expect thousands of black-cock refugees to suddenly flood 2+2. Neverwin pioneer Bryan Micon is launching a new site for his toxic flock of angry outcasts at www.donkdown.com.
Meanwhile, PokerPages is somehow staying afloat — producing semi-regular new poker articles — despite declarations that they’d be fully out of business by the end of October.

There’s a segment of the poker world that isn’t socially maladjusted? You gotta take me for a visit someday.

LOL, fair enough. Let’s just say some are more socially maladjusted than others.

I would think that Micon would have a non-compete clause…

Yeah, I wonder … it may not be enforceable when the business is bought with lammers, lol.

Maybe Tony G and co. just wanted NWP off their hands? Druff, Micon and the rest weren’t happy with the Lithuanians.

There are people that ARE happy with the Lithuanians? You gotta take me for a visit some day.
