Also, any luck tracking this "AJ Green" down on Mark Seif's myspace?

am I the only one who thinks this getting on the front page of digg would be a bad thing?

It would have been bad if a site that has limited bandwidth made it to the front page, as those sites typically get overrun with hits. At least the nytimes.com can handle a load. Media exposure is coming regardless. At least you can vote for it on digg.

what is better...mass media exposure to make sure something like this never happens again and having other poker sites tighten up their security as a result, or helping AP sweep this under the rug?

There's a middle ground where AP gets its due AND the fish don't leave because they saw on CNN that online poker is rigged.

I just found this article on an IT security website. Besides the Freaknomics blog, I think its the first article about this outside of the poker world.

The Potripper account belongs to AJ Green, former Director of Operations at AP and Scott Tom's best friend. AJ Green is currently VP of operations at nine.com.

Breaking news update that should surprise absolutely no one:

AJ Green is also POTSLAMMER, he of the 3 posts shilling for AP in his only thread. As we already know, The Watchdog, who comes in to defend him and co-shill for AP in that thread, is probably Scott Tom.

This is not the end of this story and more will be forthcoming along these lines.

Re: Cheating at AP, updated cliff notes
 

Given AP's responses thus far it would be completely retarded to try to keep this from getting out into the mainstream media if we have any desire whatsoever for
a.) the truth about the AP situation to come out
b.) other poker sites to see that this sort of thing will eventually be caught and lead to their financial ruin.

I mean, seriously guys? "Let's keep this out of the media, AP will probably make this right on their own?"
