Annie Duke is the boss? Is that the same Annie Duke of Ultimate Bet, who held the fraudulent no-money $300,000 'PRO' tourney in Aruba a few years ago to get UB off the ground?
from pokernews an interesting comment.....
'EPIC poker league, it's called?? The CHAMPION is a crook who has scammed fellow players of hundreds of thousands, if not millions, and then played against them with their own STOLEN money? Doesn't that mean he STOLE the title and 1st place million$? Truly EPIC and HONEST would be to make this aspect of the tournament the MAIN storyline when aired on TV. Wouldn't that be far more interesting for the vieweres than AK beats JJ, bla bla bla? This is only a tip of the iceberg, of what is truly the BIG STORY, the ugliness in poker.
Is it not true, that without stealing, scamming, lying.......he could NEVER have played, nor won this tournament, like so many others before?
This new EPIC PL has some character standards? Ethics or integrity obviously are no real issues or requirements for those operating this new 'league'. When will you put OJ Simpson in the Hall of Fame, Americans?'
