Pretty sure it's now time to take a look at the other recent big wins at Absolute Poker.

Has anyone looked into the Bad Beat Jackpot winners? HUGE cash there.

How would the ability to see your opponents' cards help you win a BBJ?

It wouldn't. But if this is all true, whoever did this could have gone after this too. Once I see part of a system comprimised, I think it's worth digging at the other pieces that might be comprimised as well yet undiscovered.

If you can see other hole cards, why couldn't you see what cards are coming -- and use that in a different situation? If the deck is shuffled at the beginning of the hand, someone with complete database access could see the upcoming cards. If, instead, each card is generated at random when shown, this wouldn't be so easy. You'd have to be able to manipulate which card came up.

Yes, these thoughts have no evidence behind them. Yes, I may be paranoid. But maybe it's worth looking into for a few minutes.

Why don't we just stick to the solid basis of fact that we have? The hand history we have been shown corroborates that the cheater didn't know what cards were coming.
