as sad as it is, sklansky is right. I dont really see how you can argue with what he said in his post. its sick and disgusting and what not, but its true.

exactly. It was pretty obvious that there would be an outrage and some backlash, but did people really think that Absolute would fold because of this? Someone cheated and Absolute did a crappy job of handing it. Its terrible, but its not the end of the poker world.

People can call for a boycott, but its like voting for Ron Paul; feels like the right thing to do, but in the end, who cares?

Guys he's just stating a simple EV equation.

If (expected win from juicier games at AP) - (expected win from where you play right now) > (whatever price tag you put on your moral repulsion to generating rake for the AP owners), then clearly it is +EV to switch to AP.
