Bill Perkins Says Poker Heroes Involved Serious Cheating. Bilzerian Spills the Beans-Post 503 - Page 24 - Poker News

I heard the app they were playing on requires the camera on. That means someone who was invited to the game was on the camera pretending to play while jungle (and others?) were the ones actually playing. Regardless of what you think about ghosting in general and the actions of the pros playing, selling your account and pretending to be the one playing via webcam while someone else is playing in this private game you've been invited to is super scummy.

He's probably guilty of it just not in the game Bilz thinks

The poker community views these as acceptable actions to gain an edge. Plus it's only cheating if the person being cheated is likeable.

BP is a ****ing pussy for someone who traded high stakes stocks. Can't believe he couldn't just out jungle.

That was, um, quite a place to go with this.

Were you thinking that "just because others cheat doesn't make it right for you to do so" was too complex, so a good murder analogy would make it easier to understand?

Agreed.

Cyril is a time-travelling shape-shifter that will always be relevant. His latest alias is Sina Taleb.

How many hands they played before they understood it's not him but Jungle? They should notice that fairly quickly.(if the other guy was supposed to be bad. )

It wasn't noticed. Koon brought the information to light it seems. All these guys are probably smart, rich businessmen who play together regularly so they will have a decent base level of skill. The guy ghosting isn't Mike Postle levels of stupid where he is going to overtly advertise the fact. It is not going to be massively noticeable if a good player does this in a discreet way if the guy they are playing for isn't perceived prior as horrible levels of bad.

Jungleman always plays correctly. I don't think he's capable of pretending to be a fish by mixing in playing bad.

That is not the same guy - the name Sina Taleb isn't correct.

This conversation between Jason and Shaun gives more information into what is going on in the private HS world.

The thing that is probably most troubling here is that this isn't just him. It is a group of players so they probably have even discussed strat towards this end amongst themselves. In this game the incorrect play at times is the correct play.
