Several players at a 15/30 table have just recieved the same amount of 538 dollars refunded to their accounts

Talk that its only from tournies though, so no cash game progress yet I suppose

I hope players receiving any payments from AP are not signing any releases to AP...or implying same with acceptance.

A friend of mine related a story from the 2006 WSOP where another of his pals was playing a tourney with a UB guy. They got chatting and went on break to dinner together. UB guy asked to borrow the friend's laptop to check up on somebody in a UB tourney.

When the UB dude logged in to the site, all the hole cards were revealed while they watched. UB dude logged off after finding what he was looking for.

I see two potential problems with this accusation:

1) There seems to be Absolutely (pun intended) no proof
2) I think UB tournies are not linked to Absolute (especially not that long ago)

Thank you,

Adanthar- without going thru other threads do I remember correctly that Allan Grimald is the name he has used and domain squatting was a prior occupation?

[R*R]

It was in an earlier thread where he was in court some years ago regarding websites scams of some kind. These threads are so damn long but I remember some court documents being posted.

Is it too early to withdraw our poker rollz from ap?

I found only one other Sabreline tire punctue accident in the last 10 years, and all occupants were killed in that one. The main gears are very close together in a Sabreliner, so a tire failure makes the aircraft extremely difficult to control.

A tire failure should have been a non-event (single tire). It was the abort that messed them up, not enough room to stop. Had they kept going and taken off to land at another airport with a nice long runway it probably would have been ok.
