Am I the only won who thinks the MOST remarkable aspect of this is not that he won these tournaments (the big scores on PP and PS) while he was engaged in illicit activities....but that he was able to write about these victories as great accomplishments, with a straight face, on his blog? [/ QUOTE ] Most remarkable to me is that after getting caught cheating on one site, that he didn't immediately withdraw all the money from other site(s) where he cheated. |

Re: ZeeJustin at PokerStars

Hi folks - We did our own review of ZeeJustin and unfortunately, found that he'd been playing multiple accounts in several tournaments at PokerStars. * We confiscated the money that he won illicitly. * We closed his accounts and banned him from PokerStars. * We are returning the money he won illicitly to players who were harmed by his actions in those same tournaments. Obviously, we don't like doing this, but the evidence was incontrovertible. We will do whatever it takes to keep our games and tournaments clean. Best regards, Lee Jones PokerStars Poker Room Manager [/ QUOTE ] This is a great start! Obviously ZeeJustin & JJprodigy are not the only ones doing this they are just the first hi-profile online players to be caught. How long will it take for you to remove all the other players who are employing similiar strategies? We need this so it will be safer for players who wish to play on an even playing field in online poker tournaments? |

[/ QUOTE ] It proves at the very least that he lied at least about the extent of his cheating in his "apology" response earlier in this thread. |

Re: ZeeJustin at PokerStars
This back and forth between shaniac and Bluff This! has got to stop. Disagree with each other, fine. But knock off the constant flaming as it does nothing but take the thread into an even worse direction.

Re: ZeeJustin at PokerStars
[ QUOTE ]
If I was in the final two tables of one of these tournaments I'd have a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. In short, I'd feel cheated. [/ QUOTE ] Don't have a sick feeling but anxiously awaiting Stars' investigation into that tourney. If they find that he multiaccounted in that specific tourney, I'll be pissed. edit: WOw, just saw Lee Jones' post, wonder what I will get, probably $100. Too bad this didn't break that night and the 137k was still in his Stars account. |

Re: ZeeJustin at PokerStars
Paul Phillips' .02:
[ QUOTE ] A bunch of people emailed me about a situation where a guy won a big 500K online tournament and it turned out he had played multiple accounts. Given the spacing and content of the emails I suspect someone organized a letter writing campaign. I hate to disappoint but I don't know what to tell you. The money in online poker is huge now and people are going to do everything they can to get it. If you know for sure someone is cheating then you can shun them socially, but beyond that I don't know what anyone is supposed to do. I have long thought that the dual threat of bots and collusion will eventually make online poker unbeatable and I've seen no reason to alter that opinion; if you can beat it currently, enjoy it while you can.
