Simplifying My Absolute Post
I'm writing this because so many of those who criticized my first post seem to have misunderstood it.
1. Insiders cheated 2. Other insiders denied the cheating in spite of the obvious evidence. 3. That meant the the other insiders were in cahoots with the cheaters, or the other insiders were complete morons who couldn't interpret hand histories, or they weren't in cahoots but were willing to lie. 4. Whichever of the possibilities above is true, there is no question that Absolute was remiss in not having software that flags suspicious play. NEW SUBJECT 1. Cheaters deserve to be punished. To a lesser extent arrogant idiots do too. 2. Since Absolute still probably doesn't have good cheating catching software, anyone who plays there is more likely to be cheated than if they played at a site that does have this software. 3. Absolute is going to whether this storm no matter what we do. And they are probably going to get rid of the bad apples and eventually run a good site. Driving them out of business might be fun. But if it is mainly innocent idiots who are hurt rather than thieves it isn't that fun. Also making too much of this whole thing when they are now trying to correct it, could be bad for poker in general. That being said I would be all for a probably futile effort to put them out of business if it was clear they have retained their theives and were still trying to rob us. But it is not clear. 4. If Absolute is going to continue on merrily along regardless of what two plus twoers do should we boycott them for the sake of principle only? If this was Wal Mart employing slave labor in Cambodia, I would say yes. But it is not. You should have no trouble looking at yourself in the mirror if you log on to Absolute and win lots of money there. You might have helped scoundrel owners but maybe they are gone. (You might also have HURT those owners by making the games tougher.) 5. If you think the games are juicy there, you still need to be careful because of their lack of oversight. Be quick to quit if you notice anything funny. And abide by stop losses. |

Surprised Sklansky thinks a boycott is evenly remotely possible enough to mention it. |
