excuse my ignorance, but how did this guy "stumble" upon account 363?

and how does he just log into the 363 account, open up a table and see all cards? how does that work exactly?

Maybe you didn't understand what I meant.

A programmer going through the code of Absolute Poker software probably found some routines to display hole cards to superusers (as opposed to how it hides them for normal users). He probably went searching for such accounts in the system (or perhaps it was noted in the code), and found account 363. It's also possible that he already knew of account 363, but seeing it again in the code reminded him of it, and gave him the idea to pull this scam.

Once he's on account 363, yes, he can just open any table and see all the cards.
