so much fail in this thread. comparing this to live poker lol. comparing bt playing under a diffrent name to JJP playing multiple diffrent names in the same tournaments lol. people saying cole and hastings cheated because townsend bought hand histories...lol.
If you guys actually feel this strong about it complain about PTR not the people who use it (even if you dont like them)

What South, Townsend and Hastings are said to have done is NOT the same as buying the hands from PTR. They combined their three databases of 50,000 hands so Townsend could draw up a report on Isildur1's play.
These hand histories were not the same as the observed hands that anyone could have bought from PTR. Because they contain details of Isildur1's cards mucked at showdown which are only available to the players in the hand!
So yes, they were giving themselves an advantage over and above just using datamining sites.
