Interesting [and at times pathetic] spin job Mark.
some gems...
"I met AJ twice.. guy you'd expect to find in a sportsbook.. liked to party...long hair ... free spirit". Interesting description for the man charged with security responsibilities at the business.
"he didn't mention anything about hole cards [seif chuckles]". Mark, those who were ripped off don't think its funny. What a completely ridiculous thing to say, and the reaction, wtf is up with laughing about that?
"this could occur on Pokerstars and Full Tilt". The AP spin job starts here... deflect criticism by pulling in everyone else and making accusations. Could it occur - sure, has it - no. Would those companies handle it completely differently than AP did? Absolutely. This is all spin job guys.
"just got done talking to management about what to do in certain situations... we agree to overpay". So Seif is much more than a spokesperson for the company. He is actually involved in the business decision making process. That's new. So he denies he has anything to do with this, yet, he's obviously part of the corporate decision making process. Shady calling him spokesperson. He needs a different title so we know what his role and responsibilities are... such as "VP for player relations", or some such. Seif needs to be held accountable now for all decisions relative to the damage control of this scandal.
"This sends a clear message there is a tremendous amount of oversight....". LOL this is truly laughable. It was through a complete serendipity that a hand history log was sent out that proved all this, and it was completely and totally due to player complaints and investigation that this scandal came to light. What a complete crock of [censored] this whole line of reasoning is. The important point is that AP security is non-existant. There was no oversight at all, and we are all lucky an insider snitched them out. Spin... Spin... Spin.... I'm waiting for Seif to break out the ben-wah balls, roll them in his right hand and start telling us he's actively investigating what happened to the strawberries.
He references Nat Arem, saying "he states I'm not involved in this". I'm sure your mother says the same thing Mark... I think this is also called "vouching", you know, the very thing you are accusing Todd of?
Now comes the solid gold
"he's [Dan Druff] made some remarkable statements... some untrue statements... some highly exaggerated statements" "he's doing something we call in law "vouching" for the argument I was involved". I guess like Nat is vouching you weren't but that's ok. "He [Dan Druff] is engaged in some civil liability" lol. "something I'll think about later". yeah, sure. I'm taking bets on that to cover my losses on AP Mark.
"If it turns out there was some serious wrongdoing w/ AP management, consultants or executives, whatever..." Huh? WORST SPIN JOB OF THE CENTURY! Mark - what "if"?? AP HAS ADMITTED CHEATING CUSTOMERS. ADMITS THEY WERE COMPROMISED. ADMITS THEY [censored] UP THE INITIAL INVESTIGATION. ADMITS INSIDERS WERE INVOLVED. WHAT THE [censored] IS WRONG WITH YOU SOFT PEDDLING IT WITH "IF".
Conclusion: Seif is nothing more than a paid shill for AP. He is on two-pronged spin mission. First, to cover himself, second, to cover AP. Hope what they are paying you is worth your soul.
