Default Re: Updated Cliff Notes On Absolute Poker Scandal (18th October)

Different explanations are possible for the fact that potripper chose to exploit his account in an ultra obvious way.

1) He did not have much time

2) He actually wanted to signal to the poker community about cheating at AP because his conscience was eating him up, seeing other superusers cheat in much more disguised manner

3) He is pretty retarded

4) This was his way to settle a grudge with AP. He may have been fired or whatever reason

5) ...

Now weigh in the fact that he had high position in he company, option 3 becomes less likely.

To quote Johan Cruijff, Netherlands best soccer player from 70s and 80s: "Every disadvantage has an advandate". (Elk voordeel hep zn nadeel)

IF the mass media starts to report the issue as "omg online poker rigged", this might lead to Poker Sites actually increasing their level of transparency and security regulation. Plus, it would be indeed a good moment to send an email to your congress representative saying:

"Dear sir protect me from those offshore crooks, plz regulate teh online porker kthxbye"

We have no reason to believe 3 is unlikely. In fact, all evidence points towards that being the case.
