This is bizarre: it is either one or the other. It makes no sense to complain that the auditors are paid by the poker site, and then react with outrage when someone suggests the only viable alternative: a player pays for the audit.
FWIW, I think it's entirely proper for auditors to be paid by the subject of their audit: that's how it works in the real world.

You didnt pay thay $50,000. We did. And we werent asked on who we would like to do the analyzing either. You did. And then you expect us to think everything is perfectly legit. Its a joke.
No, it is not. It is pretty normal for companies to select their own auditors in every field in the real world. When I served as a director of various businesses in the past, we normally selected our own auditors*.
I don't understand why this is the least bit controversial.
*the other times was when I was the director of various businesses indirectly owned by the State Government, when we had the Auditor-General conduct the audits
