This is like "The Game" with Michael Douglas, only difference being it is neither a game nor a movie.

Any updates? Seems strange that a potential huge story has had so little information and hasn't received much attention....

No kidding, how does a thread like this die with 2 pages while others with less facts go for 25?

This could be the mysterious "program" he was alluding too in his HU matches

i guess the investigation is running, so atm there are no updates. it was was mentioned itt, that there will be no statement due the investigation.

another thing is, that users where posting names of suspects/players - to my understanding, this is some kind of 'legal problem' for danish users, b/c it's like slander, when they actively participate with this gossip

No. Gus lost his money putting in high volume at nosebleeds stakes against the absolutely best players in the world. Not from playing random accounts that soul-read him in weird spots. His money-trail is well documented by HSDB.

For legal reasons. Read some of the posts a little above your own.

Everyone is forced to be quiet for legal reasons. It's not that difficult to understand. The legal case could easily take a year or two, and when it's over I'm sure many of the people involved will speak out.

The main suspect has been officially charged with fraud today. The Danish police have also said that they have seized several million Danish Kroner during the investigation.

^ Is it now ok for Danish posters to participate in threads that discuss suspect's name?

No, that will most likely not happen until he gets his verdict.

Ofc we can participate, as long as we as Danes don't mention his name ourselves, we didn't do anything wrong. His name has been mentioned several times in this thread, that doesn't mean I as a Dane has done something wrong by posting in it. At this time no Danish poker player doubts who he is, it is well known throughout the community.

Still pending police investigation. Victims are quiet and have stayed quiet since the news hit.

Everybody knows who it is. He still lives in Copenhagen from what I have heard.

Even tho we are a couple of years removed from the news of this thing there is still quite a bit of chatter and gossip in the danish community. I have heard some outlandish rumors regarding the amount of money involved, the number of players being scammed, the stuff the alleged scammer was involved in and so on.
