Re: Absolute Poker Scandal: An Inside Job
There is nothing wrong with statement #1, and trying to argue against it will do more harm than good for poker.
Why not focus on #s 3 and 7 instead?

who is gonna put the cheaters in prison? the chilean government? these guys aren’t allowed to operate in the us. collusion, the act of several people playing co-operatively, is also rampant on internet poker though not as lucrative. unfortunately real money gambling sites aren’t regulated by our government.

What an idiot! Not suprising that he/ they would be tempted, but a large online poker site like Absolute must have been making money hand over fist and to risk it all just to win a few hands! I would not be suprised if similar schemes ended up surfacing now.
The only solution would be to legalize it here in the US, you can be sure that MGM would not be caught doing these paltry parlor games.
