Trust me I wish I hadn't heard it as I was surprised as well to hear it was that big. You really need to move on as your attempts to find incredulous findings are so unfounded and you have created no truth of impropriety .
I would like think you just do not understand this issue, so you may want to find someone explain it to you who does understand it.
Anyway, if there were a breach of security, it was not your doing. Stop arguing the point, you did what you did with the information, whether or not this was a second hand whisper or some leak from the television crew.
What his hole cards were on
that straight flush hand seemingly was intended to be private information in real time and seemingly not to be not disclosed to opponents who would be playing
some subsequent hand involving a big bluff, 9-high or otherwise. You clearly perceived that to be the case, apparently watching and hearing him state that. Whether the cards were seen by unintended standers-by "within the ropes" or leaked by access to the television feed, doesn't really matter as to your subsequent actions in real time. .
There is a sense of karma, hubris and avarice at play here if, as you describe, the information you "knew" was not intended for you, lead you to make a fold when you otherwise would have called in a subsequent bluff hand situation .
Have you have considered you were maybe set-up like a bowling pin, then knocked down by a boss on a
subsequent hand bluff with the dramatic way that "knowledge" was spoon-fed to you and likely other table participants ?
Seems plausible that Kassouf found a new, dramatic way to communicate his hole cards to you and other players without overtly showing them. Maybe your eventual "9 High hand fold" was pre-cast by you before that subsequent particular bluff hand ever was dealt.... What you did with his information was swallow it hook, line and sinker.
