why would Scott Tom care he is not an owner anymore according to @joesebok

if Scott Tom is not an owner any more as he was "old ownership" per Paul Leggett, Sebok should ask Leggett for a letter stating that fact so the sites can restore the info
after all Joe always says he wants to get the truth out

RJ:

There's no book (or movie) coming out of this until somebody turns up dead - or somebody allegedly "involved" in this scandal suddenly (and mysteriously) disappears. Once there's a murder or some other especially despicable act tied to this scandal, that's when it will suddenly become "interesting" to a prosecutor - and folks in the Hollywood crowd. Until something really dramatic happens, this will remain at a low boil.

Travis Makar sounds desperate, but it appears that UB, the KGC, (and Paul Leggett) have decided to go ahead and let him "huff and puff" all he wants and they'll just ride it out. After all, if they are really outside the jurisdiction of U.S. law, then who can really touch them? Answer: Nobody.

If, on the other hand, TM has information that can potentially put Leggett and his cronies in jail, they'll either pay him off - or kill him. (Of course, Travis's untimely demise will be made to look as much as possible like a tragic - and unfortunate - accident.) Somebody like Travis Makar (or Russ Hamilton) is going to have to turn up dead before this story gains real traction.

Hi,

The domain absolutepokercheats.com is still registered in my name. Boba Fett paid me for it, but we never got around to transferring it, so as far as I'm concerned, he owns it but I still get lumped with the annual registration fee. If you have some content that you think should be published there, contact Boba, I guess

I've never received any contact from lawyers - I'm located in Australia and am not particularly wealthy, so it wouldn't have ever been worth anyone's time and effort to sue me.

I also don't think I published anything defamatory which is another key issue, imo.

Sup Crude? Came to post this.

WP OP although this line is a bit misleading b/c Makar (pronounced MayCar) said he was never employed by UB

"He was also a computer programmer who worked with UltimateBet"

Misleading how? The article said "For those who don’t know who he is, Makar is associated with the superuser scandal as being the owner of several accounts that were used in the scheme. He was also a computer programmer who worked with UltimateBet and Russ Hamilton."

I must be missing something. I thought he was a hardware provider and not a progammer.

guess i'm wrong

guess your right

in Travis's own words from transcript of radio interview 2-16-11

"34:11]
Micon: Well, and that’s what I want to discuss, Travis. Wicked Chops came out with a report basically saying that you were Russ’s sort of right hand man. You owned a computer shop. That you would be the one that he might turn to for… Now, this is, again, according to Wicked Chops. So, is there anything you can say as to that?
Makar: Um. Yeah. Russ and I actually were very, very close friends. I owned a computer store for several years. I basically serviced computers for most of the top players out there. Um, you know, and, again, as I said, you know, I serviced computers for Phil, Annie. I’ve serviced them for Freddy Deeb. I’ve serviced them for Scotty. I mean, I serviced computers for everybody. And that’s pretty much what I did."

later Travis said this:

"Makar: If I cashed out any money as… At one point, like I said, I had my own store, I made a good living and towards the end I actually went to work for Russ and then went to work for UBT, which was the Ultimate Blackjack Tour. I actually invested $250,000 of my own money in that company that I lost."

Gee, there's no way he's ever lying in any of this right?

if I catch him lying, I will quit posting about UB and Joe Sebok

I wonder if Prahlad is re-thinking his new job?

Every American UB pro just lost their job
