I don't see how this vindictiveness helps his daughter, which is a real issue no one seems to consider. Leave that family alone.

It could be that a person can only be convicted of one or the other, though even if that is true in one jurisdiction, it might not be true in another.

Some of the defendants he's suing have families. Some of the people he cheated out of their money had families. No sympathy for them?

This

wtf are you on about man? why would anyone consider that as an issue? This ****ing idiot cheated for a long time, and then had the balls to sue the people that rightfully accused him of cheating, maybe he should have considered that before he started this dumb **** lawsuit

unless you're trolling, in which case, brilliant

In this example, you are Mac?

Daughter is irrelevant to the parties victimized by Mike Postle, as she should be. She is just unfortunate to have a father who choose to get through life by cheating and ended up getting caught.

no, I'm just playing both sides so I come out on top

No. It was dismissed, with prejudice, because no one filed an amended complaint. Why that did not occur is a different issue.

The settlement with Stones was prior to the dismissal and was not with Postle. I have no idea about "acceptance" requirements.

Now the players get nothing from Postle from their case.

Which players? All of them or just the ones that were dismissed via this last motion

Personally I don't think you should bring money to the table you can't afford to burn.

But that aside, the families aren't going to see any money. Once the lawyers take their cut and the accountants figure out who gets what, it's gone.

Likely the assets in play are small to none. So you're hoping to get 25% of his income over minimum wage, BUT after taxes, fica, and certain other deductions required by law.

This is about vegence. Not money. And a little girl will suffer because people won't let **** go.

"However, I beseech you for both on behalf of my daughter."

"*****, you can stop right there."

That makes it OK to cheat?

Nothing wrong with a little vengeance. You want to use the courts to bully people don't be surprised if it comes back to you.

Inmyrav, how many accounts are needed to divide Postle’s non-existing paycheck by one? Just lol at your recent posts.

Next time you get robbed make sure to let the judge know you don't want the criminal getting sentenced because they have a kid...

FYP

I think this happens for real in Portland , OR.

where can i see this "evidence" ? and please don't point me in the direction of some shitty ingram/polk vids

You could pose that question to their attorney. (I did notice Veronica Brill did jump ship, without prejudice, before the dismissal of the remaining plaintiffs' claims with prejudice.)

I am not representing anyone in either the original case versus Postle or the case by Postle versus various media types.

As for substantive law generally re poker, keep in mind that a player recovery for gambling losses versus a cheater is likely more problematic than a recovery seeking rake and fees paid to an operator who failed to detect/stop cheating.

You are Mike “hatstuffer” Postle?

Wait, why not the so-called "shitty Ingram/Polk vids?" All they did is replay existing footage from the Stones Live archives – footage that still resides there for public viewing. But if I was to stipulate that the videos on those two channels are off-limits, there is also analysis by Andreas Froehli, Jonathan Little, Jeff Boski and Bart Hanson. Are those out of play, too? Is something not admissible for the purposes of this discussion simply because you don't like the result?

Anyway, if you want the evidence, here you go:

That's evidence. It's not parsed, there are no conclusions or suggestions made, but it's evidence.

It seems there are different definitions of "evidence" here. Some people are pointing to improbability as evidence, which is not the kind of evidence that can be used in court.

Also, it's very suspicious that he was looking at the phone hidden from view in his lap, during play. Again, not useful in court, since we don't what he was actually looking at.

These things are the kind of evidence that gets a person banned from poker tables, though.

One problem is that the issue went public on the internet before there was an opportunity for authorities to investigate and catch him in the act.

This leads to a bigger issue -- is there really no better avenue than Instagram to expose something like this? Veronica Brill said she and others approached casino management and got brushed off. What can a person do in that situation? Isn't there some place to report it?

You can call professional poker players as expert witnesses and use their testimony as evidence.

What court do you preside over, Your Honor?

The phone hidden in the lap is the modus operandi by which someone at the table had the potential to access information on other player's hole cards being collected by the live stream. Couple it with the god mode play and win rate and you've got circumstantial evidence for cheating.

There are reasons why most poker rooms do not allow the use of electronic devices by players while they are involved in a hand that are clearly in play here.
