Whether you believe it or not, I am pretty proud of the fact that lots of people learn things from me. Math challenged learn some math and logic and math adept sometimes learn some street smarts.

There were two types of negative resonses to my Absolute Post. Some said it is wrong to look at things totally pragmatically. Thus a probably futile boycott of AP should be done even if the games are juicy. The people who say that I do not worry about. Its a matter of opinion as far as I am concerned.

The other negative response suggested that my OP was welcomed by AP. It was even suggested that I was directly or indirectly paid for it. Those who think I might be on the take, I also don't worry about. It is logical to think I might have that in me. But if they think I might be on the take in this particular case, I do worry about them. Because it implies they think that AP on the whole likes my post. In other words that they would have prefferred that I posted it rather than posting nothing at all. There were in fact many posters who thought that, even if they didn't question my motives.

There is something wrong with anyone who could think that. I am not trying to be mean. I am trying to get you to realize that you are not thinking straight. As far as I'm concerned having such an opinion tells me you have something like Asperger's syndrome and you should be aware of it. I think anybody who believes AP liked my post is not a good poker hand reader.

Let me spell it out. My post basically said that even if AP totally cleaned house, the remaining management is marked as totally incompetant, at least as far as analyzing poker hands is concerned, or dishonest enough to try to cover up other's wrongdoing. I also said that colluders will continue to have a field day there until they install collusion detection.

Yet some of you think that my remark that you should "go for it" if you think its profitable (while remaining extra vigilant), since a boycott would be unsuccessful, MORE THAN MADE UP for the other words, in the mind of AP's management.
If you are one of those people there is something inside your head you need to fix.

I understand where you were coming from as I also discussed with close friends that AP is probably going to be very juicy for the next couple of months.

You were just giving your opinions on it for what reason? Idk You would figure the "smarties" would already have figured that out at least for middlestakes that AP is probably the most profitable site to play right now,imo.

Slanksky I think you were just majorly misunderstood and actually might be because you might have a slight case of Aspergers Syndrome. hahahaha.

Why did you feel the need to post your opinions? was it because you felt left out because of Mat's post and wanted to chime in with some feedback on the ap scandal as well?

Anyway F the haters!

David Sklansky, the problem with you is not your head. It is how you use it.

Try to broaden your view and you will se that your roll as an famous poker writer and personality have a dimension which I doubt you are aware of. If you have been aware of that, you should not have been “forced” to start 22 new threads in this issue to try to justify your first statement, which of course was an nihilistic error.

I'm going to venture a guess and say that most people that said things like that were just flaming for attention, and i highly doubt anyone truly believes that absolute liked your post or that you were in on the take.

It is possible for them to be both. The average lurker-troll in BBV can be pretty stupid.

I withdraw the nomination. I just found OP's description of how he cheated (once) at Paradise poker. It would be difficult for him to lead the charge against the AP cheaters.

1. Hang everyone at AP and stay on there backs until Ap is no more.
2. AJ, Scott Tom, Mark and the Chief all need to go to jail and AP needs to be shut down. We will do all we can to make this happen.
3. Those in charge should be arrested and the site should be shut down, we will do all we can to help make this happen.
4. We need a boycott on AP
5. I woudn't suggest playing on AP, the site has cheaters and the owners cover it up.
6. AP is a rogue site and we can no longer endorse them in any way.
7. We are unsure if AP has cleaned up their act so we can not endorse them at this time.
8. AP cheated but maybe don't cheat anymore, so maybe you can still play there, nothing we can do about it anyway.
9. Ap should be good to go, go ahead play there
10. Ap is a fish pond, dive in!
