Nah, he will just block him on twitter, discord, etc..lol

Unfortunately this video will probably have no impact unless you get it shared among the poker community and/or a response from party and rob over it. If the only eyes who see it are this thread it might aswell not exist most likely.
I've been told that the high stakes private chat with rob yong on discord has not cared to discuss this stuff (most likely because all these high stakes players are going to benefit from using huds / 3rd party tools vs other regs who potentially might not be using them is my guess.)


With that being said thank you for going public with it and hopefully it has some amount of chance at reversing the no HH policy most importantly , and huds secondly since its annoying to play vs people you know are using huds against you while trying to follow the sites rules they don't enforce

turn around, shut their eyes tightly, stick fingers in their ears, and shout, "nah nah nah nah nah" ?

glub glub glub glub glub thats all i see

his "logic" fails on many levels. just b/c many ppl share private data on social media, not everyone does. and even if you're on social media with your real name, you still can block content from the public. besides that, poker is still seen as gambling and so many recs don't want to be tied to this. on top of that, how many Michael Smith, Ji-hoon Kim or whatever exist? or vice versa, what, when you have a unique name? and in what live games you know every guy at the table (by name) anyway?

but yong always sees the things, as it's best for his opinion. he claims HUDs are scary for recs, b/c fish think it's cheating. i know, that many recs also believe stables or players, who got paid to enter a live event so the GTD is hit, is some sort of cheating or at least an unfair advantage ...

let's see how this situation develops ... Yong announced a fair play council: "a non profit independent org connecting online & live poker operators who commit to sharing their information with eachother on known cheats, colluders & bots - what’s your view on this?"

The discussion, if HUDs or HHs are a necessity is over. the main concern is, that there're players out there, using illegal software and apparently don't get caught. so maybe you listen to these "geeks"

Well, it looks like party team watched video. They banned poor moomcy. For using Visual Studio i suppose. Such a childish behavior.

the level of decisionmaking at partypoker just amazes me again and again.
odds are they will go broke eventually

red flags all over the place

I mean out of anything one could predict from this situation is that the account in video would be banned and it was dumb not to censor the screenname? lol

Calling the site out on their inability to do what they promise (and show yourself breaking the rules in a 'gotcha' way , not a 'here is evidence its possible please help fix this!' way) they will not like it and very likely snap ban you

They can find who was playing from hand id or ppl around, there is no point to hide screenname.

I didn't break any rules, as you can see on video, there is only Visual Studio. No huds, no other tools. They banned me in revenge .

haha ye I was thinking the same. should not be that hard to grab all the running applications and check for unusual software/programming software

Can you post the email(s) and any communication that they sent to you?

Are you affiliated with holdem manager or any other company affected by the party HUD ban?

Any link to this announcement ?

GDPR issues addressed in the announcement ?

Amazing. I guarantee HUDs are already available. Eastern european bumhunter regs who never played a reg in their life suddenly decide it's time to play everyone. I wonder what gave them that confidence?

hahahaha this is ****in ridiculous

I refuse to believe they can be this stupid, **** I mean Ike is on their team

Wait, they confiscate account balances ?

Do they do that for any closure or just when they feels like it ?

So much for "fair play", especially since Rob publicly solicited submission of such evidence ....

Is Party no longer subject to regulation anywhere ?

Yes, they stole 10 bucks .

I think we all saw Yong's move coming a mile away.

Of course, but that is like saying we all saw a guy with a ski mask in 100 degree weather loitering outside a liquor store. Wouldn't make what unfolded any more or less legal.

That Party confiscated player funds, solely because someone showed him what he asked to see, is even more objectionable in a regulatory sense. What makes that $10 or $100 or $1,000 property subject to unilateral confiscation ?

Not convinced their security is that capable.

Searching for OPAC finds:



(I haven't watched it all, yet.)

Fwiw, I was told by the poker boss of a site many years ago that they had a "sharing names of the bad guys" arrangement with some other sites and they had to pull out of it because some of the sites shared the names of some of the good whales, falsely, so they could keep them to themselves. Maybe he was wrong in his suspicions, of course, because what reputable organisations would do that?

As for Yong wanting to keep a good poker ecology, (the scientific study of the processes influencing the distribution and abundance of organisms, the interactions among organisms, and the interactions between organisms and the transformation and flux of energy and matter), who can blame him for that?
