But that still doesn't answer why they intentionally get last place (how else do you explain that many dead lasts?)... Do you realize how hard it is to get last? You have to move in AND get called in a 1k and still lose the race.. You have to try to be busting to have those stats IMO..

I guess that when there is no overhead in the tournament they just go all-in preflop with junk when someone holds AA or KK and then they are out and nothing is lost for the site, however when there is overhead they will get at least far enough to recoup the lost money or even make up for other lossy tournaments.

Who knows, really. But I agree with the fact that going out first or second in over a dozen tournaments in a row is really really really hard to do. Somebody ALWAYS busts on the first hand. So you'd have to be going all-in, and somebody who knows he's ahead would have to call you, AND you would have to not suck out.

Some sort of chip dumping, because the other dude would have to know he's ahead? Some sort of beta testing for the later hack/scam? A way to establish a maniacal style of play/generate losses in advance to cover your tracks? Some/all of these? If this database is accurate, it's really really bizarre and just another piece of evidence that something very suspicious is going on, and that an inside job is most likely.
