you'll have to take my word for it solely because it got really really old, but trust me, he had the "donkey seeing hole cards" thing down pat

Re: We haven\'t won yet: latest (10/19) cliff\'s notes on AP scandal
Won't the mass media lose interest in this story soon? And isn't AP very happy with the way they've come out so far in the media? They have little motivation to do much else at this point (other than player reimbursement).

I thought POTRIPPER played those hands in a unique style, while others might play them differently when viewing opponents hole cards. Thanks for your hard work BTW. |
Re: We haven\'t won yet: latest (10/19) cliff\'s notes on AP scandal
adanthar,
idk, i think to me that hh looks more like a player knowing what was to come rather than a player knowing what another player had. granted once he saw the flop, he played like he knew what the other player had, but if he knew the cards, and wanted to reduce variance and ensure that he would pick up the chips already in the middle, why wouldn't he just shove preflop rather than flat call and take a flop? |

We have two obvious dumping accounts also. Romnaldo and I think the other was Supercard55 That's at least 7 accounts involved in this elaborate "rogue geek" plan where he made no attempts apparently to cash out- only to prove a point. |
Re: We haven\'t won yet: latest (10/19) cliff\'s notes on AP scandal
I dont see anything suspicious about the way that hand was played. But obv a decent player with 363 access would play most hands normally to avoid detection.

Re: Lie Harder
the sheets thing kind of throws a new wrinkle in it.. Before reading the MSNBC article, I felt that it almost seemed like Potripper wanted to get caught. The fact that the employee sent that excel file makes it even more suspicious. Bottom line, I want a superuser account. |

All this not to cash out any money. |

Re: We haven\'t won yet: latest (10/19) cliff\'s notes on AP scandal
I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir here, but none of their reasoning makes any sense. They knew the steamroller account belonged to Scott Tom and ignored it during their initial investigation, yet now they expect us to buy this rogue employee theory when the whole thing smells of a massive coverup.

it's a technicality. They didn't cash it out. Simply dumped to other players and 300k was dumped at one sitting. Spinning it. Nothing new here. Their character does not change overnight.

Wow it did not take Tom long to find a new business venture. Oh right.....just in....he was framed. Sorry about that Scott. |
Re: Lie Harder
For anyone on the trail of Mr. Tom's likeness, a hot lead might be possible media coverage of Ultimate Poker Challenge III at The Plaza (11/05). Mr. Tom finished 17th and his brother 13th in that 10k event.
And at the very least, this confirms Andy Bloch knows what the guy looks like: [ QUOTE ] Andy Bloch knocks out Scott Tom 2005-11-28 16:55:56 EDT On a board of 10c6c2s10s Andy Bloch moved all in and Scott Tom called all in for 35k. The players showed: Scott Tom AA Andy Bloch Jd10d The river came a blank and Bloch took the pot with his trip 10's to eliminate Scott Tom in 17th place. [/ QUOTE ] |
