Default Re: Absolute Poker Scandal: An Inside Job

A little more info:

First, Mohawk Internet Technologies (MIT) host TONS of online casinos, including UB, FTP, PS and PP (at least before they shut down in the US). Their location makes them super convenient for online gaming companies wishing to cater to American clientèle. Also, it looks like all gambling sites hosted there MUST be certified by the KGC.

I can't tell if they actually host AP or not. They don't host their website, but if someone who isn't at work wants to figure out what IPs their actual gaming servers use, it might be interesting.

KGC relies on another company, Gaming Associates, to regulate the "fair play" part of their regulations. I contacted them via email about an hour ago, but if anyone has free overseas calling and wants to try, their number is:
+61 2 8884-7900 (Australia)

Finally, that rivieraltd.com domain was only registered this February and as stated, was registered by Domain Discreet. I couldn't figure out much of anything about that company other then a lot of scam sites are registered by them, as well as some propaganda sites and also dundermifflininfinity.com. The only contact info for them I could find was 1-902-7495331.
Furthermore, the server rivieraltd.com points to appears to be nothing more then a mail server.

One other interesting thing I found out about this domain is that it has the same authoritative DNS servers as absolutepoker.com, run by a Toronto hosting company called Colosseum (colosseum.com)

/edit this company hosts AP's website.
