We win (AP Scandal v. 27)
 
[ QUOTE ]

Just posted at P5s.

PocketFives just received a phone call from Absolute Poker confirming the suspicions of the online poker community over the past month. While we need to be vague in this post to respect their wishes, we can say that their systems were compromised, and that they are prepared to provide the details in a statement coming shortly.

Part of the statement will include a plan to refund players affected by this compromise.

We are extremely relieved to hear this outcome, as our most important goal in all this is to see justice given to those who were cheated in this process. Pocketfives is extremely proud to have played a part in the process of uncovering the impropriety that has occurred. We would of course like to thank all the other parties who played a key role in this process—specifically the folks that have been posting here and at twoplustwo.com.

This is great news for everyone. Keep your eyes out for the statement.

Extremely Relieved,

--Adam

This isn't enough, don't settle for this guys unless they are forthcoming with full details and willing to submit to a 100% independent audit. Don't let them buy you off.

again, is the cash game situation going to be addressed too?

I'm pretty sure Absolute is, but they're just not now. Atleast that's the way I read it.

I still want to know what will be done to people who were targeted by AP/UB to get scammed because they were up to much.

This is awesome. Serge, perhaps link to the old cliff notes for continuity purposes? Since people are still discovering this story.

Agreed. Until we see the statement, I wouldn't get that excited.

I would wait for the statement to be sure that this is good, but I am excited to see the statement.

I hope they are truthful, there are so many people out to get them at this point they really have a lot to gain if they can just stop covering things up. A partial admission would really just fan the flames of these people that have been contacting me with inside info.

So here's to hoping for openness and honesty.

Just noting that APs press releases seem to all come out of Miami, Florida.
That is the last known address of Brent Beckley.
It is also the location Steamroller is known to have played from.

That's all.


Woot to winning- but this thing needs to smell so clean that cans of corn could be called for.

This is great news.

Still a little scary that they'll intentionally sweep something under the rug.

I know people lost $800,000 as a result of this, but I'm glad that in all of this trauma we were allowed to see Admo in his element.

Agreed. We have some group of ex-frat brothers that set up this company and then proceeded to cheat their customer out of tons (1 mil?) money. There is no telling what Absolute has done to its customers in the past. How long has this been going on?
