The 5-Aces on Poker Stars story
 

Ok, so yesterday at Fallswiev Casino I met the guy who claims he was in the "famous" poker Stars hand where this happened:

http://www.rnrh.net/images/blog/poke..._five_aces.jpg

He is suing Poker Stars now, as far as I understood.

Heh, when I saw this Screenshot first, as few month ago, I insta-assumed it was photoshop and didnt do any further research on the topic.

Now however I am curious if this is actually legit.

Actually, he didn't seem like a BS kinda guy - not young, has money.

Re: The 5-Aces on Poker Stars story
 

wtf that board has 5 aces? anyone else notice that?

Re: The 5-Aces on Poker Stars story
 

old stars reply...

T# 14705493 was the $10 + $1 Deep Stacks tournament held on 12th
November 2005. The top four players in this event were:

"gamblinfla"
"MiketheKid2"
"twiceasright"
"witzy2004"

The player "Big Devin" didn't take part in this tournament.

Next, you can see the observer "style12" in chat on the
table. "style12" is not a User ID on our database as of June 2006 --
he doesn't exist.

There are also two hands mentioned here. One is # 3044245011 and the
other # 3044243120. I've attached them both below so that you can see
the hands as they originally happened. As you can see, the chip
stacks are totally consistent from one hand to the next. Further
more, "Big Devin" didn't take part.

Finally, it is clearly demonstrable that the image has been edited.
Attached please find a closeup of several of the cards on the screen.
If you look closely, you'll see that the ace of clubs is one pixel too
high. The prankster that tried to run this hoax was not quite careful
enough with his editing and left this evidence behind.

I hope that this sets your mind at ease, but if you have further
queries, please do not hesitate to let us know.

Best regards,
