Boom This smackdown deserved a little more attention.

Also I want to put my foot in the ass of the next person mentioning the "twitch key". What would that have to do with anything? Why on earth would the realtime raw feed ever be transmitted to twitch? Use your head before you post.

Taylor Smith is commenting in this video, and in the commentary 29.35 says he has done digital graphics all his life

With this getting some national media attention, law enforcement have to investigate this amirite?

This would make a great movie or book (or even a 60 minutes/dateline segment). I just hope Postle doesn't profit off it in any way.

SVP absolutely buried him.

I was surprised there wasn’t more “allegedly” thrown in there by him but YOLO when you have Disney law for any defamation (no clue how that works anyways).

Either way awesome job SVP. He needs to takes Berky’s Place on that Casino scene meme.

Link to sportscenter piece?

This can’t be good for Justin/stones stream/mike

Hope they saved some stolen $ for lawyers and didn’t blow it all on cars and key fobs

Don't forget that a third King was dead. The guy playing before Postle folded KQ.
So it was 47.53% (rather than 41.52%).

I think he wants to keep up his image that he's a wild-man gambler loco type. What better chance to propagate this than getting it all in with a lousy hand as a favourite?

If your some sort of poker god who almost never lost and made the right call or fold virtually every single time. If your this good. Why would you be playing in games only with a video feed at 1/3 tables at Stones poker room? Why wouldn't you be in Vegas winning all the money in the world? There might be a perfectly reasonable explanation.

To me, the most likely way he cheated was the following:

Justin likely helped Mike setup the rfid hack so Mike's phone can directly intercept the rfid. After that, Justin didn't do much else. He then has to press some button in an app on his phone to start reading aloud cards to a headset/bone-in ear thing. After the button is pressed, it reads all the cards exposed on the table. This also makes sense, because it'd be annoying to constantly hear cards being read aloud all day long when you have no decisions.

Makes perfect sense when you think about the way he played some hands. Like with that KK vs AA hand. He doesn't bother getting a read on what everyone has, because there's no decision yet. Of course he's going to reraise KK preflop. All the sudden, he gets a large 4b, and now he presses something on his phone, waits awhile (presumably for the app to read aloud the cards remaining), then folds.

Bad ideas from bad to worst

Bad: Cheat players out of hundreds of thousands of dollars at your poker room in the most blatant ways possible.

Worse: Broadcast almost a hundred hours of damning evidence to be used against you in your upcoming massive lawsuit.

Worst: Spend dozens of hours taunting the victims of your fraud and theft with memes and jokes completely losing any sympathy in court during said massive lawsuit.

It sickens me more about Justin than Postle.

Postle's life has clearly been like your normal degen/punter poker player. On FB you see the sports bets, he talks about his childhood which included gambling from an early age, he's prob been busto every other month.

But you have the TD of the room doing this to his players, his employees. Someone mentioned Kevin Racks (RIP) playing in the room on the stream. Who do you think arranged that? Why do you think Justin arranged that? To get more views by people interested in Kevin's tragic story.

Postle is just another degen that every card room has. Justin Kuraitis is something else.

SVP goating as usual

It's 20 spots in or so, 15 or less if you don't count video links. He's ****ed.

damn that is ballsy by ESPN given the ridiculous PC world we live in these days.
props to SVP

We need the Netflix documentary on this asap

doesn't change the win percentage though. It does if 54 has the same suit.

Group collapses/goes insolvent, Mike can't pay them back and is forced into this scheme as recompense.

If twitch was around when ESPN made Tilt...

Two guys folded 4s as well. Doug Polk covered all of this. 45 is still a $ favorite but theres a chance Mike didnt check stream fast enough to see the 4s folded.

Cant wait for sprotscenter piece. can They show Stones Live clips on their show without buying rights (aka did they show actual clips of mike?)?

Postle said he just wanted the quiet poker grinder life, yet decided to play exclusively on live streams, had episodes specifically named after him and was even involved in producing his own poker show (Dream Poker or whatever).

I think he got so deep into this act, the adulation and the awe he inspired in his peers, he just had to keep going.

Yes. I think the point of seeing other people's hole cards would be to find situations when you can get it in absolutely knowing you have an advantage.

For instance when you have 54s and two people are all-in with AK. Normally, 54s would be a fold, but since you know they both went all-in with AK, you actually have the most equity and can call.
