Becky Makar is married to Charles "Woody" Moore - he was an old dude that got 3rd at LAPC that Ivey won.

While Woody's career consisted of years in the oil and gas business, specifically his own drilling business, it was the leisure activities that were the most fun for him. Golf has been a game that he has enjoyed for years, even playing with several well-known poker players like Mike Sexton, Russ Hamilton, and Blair Rodman. He has even become embroiled in some high stakes golf games with the group.

oh and:

The 25th annual World Series of Poker world champion Russ Hamilton was roasted at/for lunch. The audience was treated to a great luncheon in one of the Orleans's ballrooms and Card Player Cruises own Mark Tenner emceed the festivities. Shown here are the roasters and others. From left are Woody Moore, Dennis Novinskey, Mark Tenner, Russ Hamilton (man of the hour), Tom Jacobs, Blair Rodman, Bonnie Damiano (who coordinated the entire weekend of events), and Mansour Matloubi. You could tell from all of the good-natured ribbing how popular a guy Russ is. It was an honor to be part of the festivities.

Paul is the CEO of UB and the one whos handing out the refunds for the NioNio investigation...Sounds like what BW is saying is that this guy has been involved with cheating and now hes getting money back.

Daniel called Hamilton "A complete low life who’d cheat his own mother by telling her that he shoots 95 when he can actually shoot in the 70’s just to steal her money."

Why is everyone shocked and how do we know he isn't involved with the company anymore? Because Annie and some Indian say so?

Hahahha where did that golf quote come from? That's Daniel Negreanu I'm assuming? Can someone link me to that?

he is very much still involved in the companies.

quote from liquid poker........

Apparently AP did not really buy UB. Well, in a way it did, but not the way most of you are thinking.

Russ Hamilton, 1994 Main Event winner and former UB owner, quietly bought AP awhile back. This was after he took UB public, but before the October, 2006 UIGEA.

Sometime after the UIGEA (I forget when), AP bought UB. However, it was actually Hamilton (current owner of AP) buying back his original company.

The date of the closing of the Kid55 account and the fact that it was never issued a cheating refund tells me the account was used in the superuser activity.

Here are some admin notes on the account in question...

Admin Comments: 21-SEP-07 WRA Ok to cash out, TR ID 2545983, $8500, BankWire. Kemly 05-SEP-07 formerly NoPaddles 06-APR-07 name+change+from+nvtease+++CH

I don't know what to make of that, but maybe someone else can. Who's WRA? Kemly? CH?

Here's the money info on the account:

Revenue Information: Poker Rake Rev: 2,130.19 TBJ Net Win/Loss: -113.25 RSB Rake Rev: 0.00 DEP Count: 5 VIP Status Poker SnG Rev: 17.00 TBJ SnG Rev: 0.40 RSB SnG Rev: 0.00 DEP Amount: 1,950.00 VIP Current Pts Poker Tourn Rev: 35.00 TBJ Tourn Rev: 15.00 RSB Tourn Rev: 0.00 WD Count: 56 VIP End Date Poker Total Rev: 2,182.19 TBJ Total Rev: -97.85 RSB Total Rev: 0.00 WD Amount: 170,348.00 UPC Pts: 2,843.63 PBJ Net Win/Loss: 0.00 PBJ Wager: 0.00 Poker BD Balance: Poker BD Pending: UPC Pts (time): 88.00 TOTAL REVENUE: 2,084.34

She withdrew $170,348.

Wonder where that ended up?

The following account names are known to have been used in the fraudulent activity:

NioNio
Sleepless
NoPaddles
nvtease
flatbroke33
ilike2win
UtakeIt2
FlipFlop2
erick456
WhackMe44
RockStarLA
stoned2nite
monizzle
FireNTexas
HeadKase01
LetsPatttty
NYMobser
WhoWhereWhen

The additional usernames include:

Crackcorn55
WhakMe
GrabBag123
gravitation
Bgroup
H_Curtis
Twenty 1
WacoManiac
Broke_In_L_A
ShaqTack
BlueBerry101
HolyMucker
55WasHere
Xnomas
dannyboy55
Indy05
SlimPikins2

In the first set of names, we know that:

NioNio was changed to NYMobser on Sep 5th, 2007. His other account name was H B. The name on the account was Haim Bajayo and the email was isrelly@aol.

Also, nvtease, sleeplesss and NoPaddles are the same account. It went in the following order... Until April 6th, 2007, the account was known as nvtease. From that point until Sept 5th, 2007 (same date as above), the account was known as NoPaddles. After Sept 5th, 2007, the account was known as sleeplesss.

In addition, the name on that account was Lauren Makar and the address was a Las Vegas address. I won't release the address on here because, more than likely, the person was innocent. Does anyone know how to look up property ownership records in some database? If so, post a link/explanation. Also, if you know the name Lauren Makar, please let us know.

Lastly, this account cashed out WAAAAY more than it should have. Like hundreds of thousands of dollars that was not won at the table. It seems like it was a money funnel of some kind.

I feel pretty bad releasing names because these people were probably just pawns being used by the real cheaters, but if it comes down to that, the people with this info will just have to do that until something comes out. The dirt is out there.

Are the superuser accounts thought to be 'history'? I had noticed that several of the superuser associated accounts were two syllables ending with two numbers. (i.e. flatbroke33, WhackMe44, HeadKase01, Crackcorn55, dannyboy55). Eight of the other accounts also ended in a digit. Last Sunday when I saw the UB $200k tourney results with THEFORCE32 taking first and GRIMREAPER88 taking second I was like 'wow - what a coincidence'. I am sure it is just a coincidence but thought I would bring it up.

BTW - Great work again guys!

Thank you,

SPW Holdings is Russ Hamilton's current "Corporation" that is registered in the state of Nevada. The CPA's name on file is Steven Giorgione. Another search shows that he is also the CPA on file for a couple of Hellmuth's corps and Antonio's.

Not implying any wrongdoing on his part, but I wonder if he ever wondered where the extra $$$ was coming from.

Did this account actually become Kemly and not sleepless on 9/5/07?
