To fully understand the situation we have to go back one year when a reddit post was written. User Harleyy30040 wrote details about Shakeeb’s behavior. Apparently he sold the Canadian player $6,000 dollars through PokerStars. According to Harleyy30040, Kazemipur would ask for the transfer but would not send the money claiming problems with his bank accounts.

The situation between Kazemipur and Harleyy30040 solved when a friend of the affected part met with Shak who paid his debt. However a few days ago a Facebook post was written about the behavior of the Canadian player who apparently keeps on asking for money without paying.

Chris Symesco , who won recently won a side event at the EPT 12 Dublin, wrote a post in 780 Poker worthy of the worts horror story you can imagine.

Apparently Shakeeb keeps on buying money from different players in PokerStars but he would never pay. Also Shak would sell action from his tournament and from other players packages. Players would send him the money but he would keep it freely because most of the times the owner of the package would not cash.

He would also buy action from different players but wouldn’t send the money but would ask for the money in case the seller cashed.

According to Chris Symesco, everything escalated a few weeks ago when Shak asked him for money. He wanted to play a juicy cash game but would sit out for many hours. After a few hours, the room manager told Shak that he was out of the game because he wasn’t playing at all. At this point Chris would ask for his money but Shak told him that he wouldn’t return it.

Symesco then wrote the post where over fifty players have shared their stories. Actually they started a count of the debt which at the time is around $300,000 dollars.
