Chance elsewhere: Practically insignificant

Why is that?

[/ QUOTE ]

Because:

a) there is no evidence that anything like this has ever occurred elsewhere
b) there is no evidence to suggest it is likely elsewhere
c) Absolute Poker - as this thread demonstrates - are quite genuinely idiotic
d) Larger sites are more likely to be able to afford the costs of increased security
e) Sites such as PokerStars and Party are in less shady regulatory environments than AP in Costa Rica

i think Josem probably was taking a shot at APs security. but also the fact that AP has less higher stakes traffic helped for this to come out.

it would be exponentially more difficult to catch someone on Stars, if it ever happened, since they can take money from so many more people before arousing suspsicion. they might never get caught.

No - this is wrong.

People caught this at AP because they noticed odd play.

People playing at PS (and elsewhere) would similarly notice odd play if it was taking place there.
