all the VIP matches, but managing to win in the TLB match, where I played
heads-up limit 5-card draw for the first time ever. I have played some limit
5-card draw before, but not HU.

Anyway, I then went upstairs to watch my buddy Rocco Mediate on TV as he was
trying to win the Arnold Palmer Invitational Golf Tournament (he finished
2nd to a super-hot Vijay Singh), and I then went to the driving range. While
there I got phone calls from my Dad, my wife, and PokerStars security. So, I
rushed home and dealt with things.

It appears that this ikeyrson bastard managed to guess my password after
making multiple attempts. He then played like an idiot as you are all aware,
blatantly dumping chips from my account to his account. Based upon dozens of
emails sent to PokerStars security, they jumped in and froze his account.
So, all of my money will be returned, and he gets nothing. PS isn't allowed
to tell me this guy's real name (if it is his real name, whatever it is he
used to create his relatively new account). If anybody out there finds out
who it is, feel free to share his name. I'll be more than happy to try and
make sure that every online and live poker room in the world bars him
permanently.

So, in summary, account hacked, hacker caught and account frozen, all money
safe, I really did go only 1-3 this morning/early afternoon in my VIP and
TLB matches.

Thanks to all of you who helped me by alerting PS security.

Later, Greg Raymer (FossilMan)

P.S. - lol hackerments

lol, it's okay. I didn't get/hear anything from PS, but I don't mind. Hackers sucks, I was just there. It was so obvious that it would have been stopped either way.
