Cardplayer making up hands for POY

[gaamblor]

while playing I was sitting near the final table of the bellagio cup event today.

The 2nd to last hand is legit, after that they made a deal of which i know no details.

After the deal the cardplayer reporter talked to the players and explained that he couldn't report the deal due to player of the year points and had to make something up (i'm paraphrasing but the gist is 100%). and thus the phantom final hand

in this case who cares right? but over time (and with the money wagered on POY) deals need to be considered.

and perhaps truth in reporting should count for something? i imagine this policy came after the JC tran "win" that wasn't in april
