100% Proof that certain Absolute players could see hole cards?

I guess that ends the argument that AP can't be that stupid

that argument was always stupid. Stubborn people just need to have it beat over their head to accept it.

Assuming it couldn't happen because "they couldn't possibly be that stupid" is really incorrect for many of these companies imo.
In many situations the answer usually is, "Yeah, they really could have been THAT stupid."

Interesting that they send everyone's hole cards. Is it that big of a deal though except that they may be exposing everyone's playing style?

Well, that in itself is a big deal - but they apparently also reveal the IP addresses and email addresses of people observing the tournaments as well.

in the excel file they sent me, there are no ip addresses or email addys as far as i can tell. but there are definitely hole cards

The other part that makes it a "big deal" is Absolute has posted several times in threads on various sites assuring us there is no way this could have happened- and that they won't share other people's personal info due to privacy issues.

Clearly we know that is not the case. (LDO)

I don't know how any could possibly believe this is made up after having seen the whole file. I know that the relevant info (table 13) has been made public. I don't plan on making the other tables public because there's no reason to show this holecard info for unrelated hands, but there's a whole tournament here. There's no way to make this up.
