Re: Absolute Poker -- PotRipper Backstory Fully Exposed

Nice detective work Haley but you need to get on with your life, nothing is going to come from this.

2eazy, you still live in Canada? I wonder if Scott is scared to go back to the US?

The morale of the story is sites like Everest should be cheating like no tomorrow. Super users, rig the cards for fish, rig the deck for personal accounts, you name it they should be doing it because clearly there are no repercussions.

Re: Absolute Poker -- PotRipper Backstory Fully Exposed

Mr. Hellmuth twitted yesterday:

Just chatted w @GStephanopoulos about my appearance on "Good Morning America" on "Sweeps Week" (May 3 - 8) w @realannieduke, gonna be fun!!

It's a pity (except for the 60 minutes expose), we can't get msm to grill these 'faces' of UB about such incidents harder.

I realize this thread is mainly about AP, and I'm not accusing Phil or Annie of this, but if I made enough money to make a living from an organization that made its profits illegally, and I knew that, I wouldn't continue on like these 2 have.

How sweet would it be if Good Morning America hit them with this instead of dangling from their nutts.

I am also willing to bet Annie and Phil may have had some idea about the cheating before it became made public, maybe not the entire scope, but just call it a hunch. In any case, given how both Annie and Phil have praised Mr. Leggett so much, and he seems to have not been so honest, maybe they have not been entirely honest. Given the newest developments, I find any story about UB or AP coming from this "new management" to be hard to believe, given all that is known now.
It makes me think of a thread where someone posted HH's where you could see which cards were next in the deck.
