Not at all. Why would he? He'll disappear off the stream.

Why would you say such a thing? If he doesn't go to jail he's not done. Cheaters generally don't go away and it's not like he is now set for life based on what he stole.

This is true.

Nobody suspected he was cheating through a bone conduction headset.

Two minutes later, at 3:23:00, in the same video, he is only able to make a hero call on the river after he looks down between his legs at his phone.. (This is how he knows what the other player's cards are)

This is a great find. Since this is early on he was probably not as adept at hiding what he was doing. The way he looked down at his phone this time was extra lol obvious.

Yet if mike p was cheating,and it went on for months,they didnt pick up on it,or do anything about it.
Imagine he was doing that at blackjack (winning big for months or years) do you think the casino wouldnt be all over him ,investagating every play he made ?.
True, I know of multiple players who have stolen chips off other players stacks in a casino and they were just given a 24 hr ban.

He has special nicknames like "the Apostle", and is SO good and has such a HUGE reputation that they make memes out of his greatness, making him either "Jesus", the "Messiah", or "The Devil". Shouldn't has playing ability and style yield similar results RIGHT ACROSS THE BOARD, at every place he regularly plays?
This is really easy to defend. It's because Stones Casino had a specific goal of giving Mike Postle this hero persona. Mike Postle claims to not be interested in any of those accolades. He claims he just wants to play poker.

It proves that he didn't know the runout in this particular hand. Also, I would note he's in a seat that he typically doesn't sit in.
