AP thread 87.1 - waiting on the statement ITT

[El Diablo]

N,

If they're reasonably smart, they'll have a major public announcement of a 5-year Costa Rican jail sentence for a few involved. Of course these sentences will be suspended a week or two later.

AP: Ship me $100k and I'll give you all the advice you need to damage control super-effectively.

The positions Absolute spent the better part of a week insisting these guy were already no longer in? Do you have any indication of what kind of transparency is going to be put in place to ensure this happens?

[apefish]

Nat- I know you've done a world of work on this. Since we are unlikely to actually get something approaching full disclosure, and someone has come forward to clear the Oscar account, any chance they would look at other accounts that have won recently?

It would quell the speculation for the most part and at this point I assume costs your source almost nothing.

Implicating people is one thing (swongish), but finding out the larger picture of when the cheating started and ended may be one thing Absolute can actually do that doesn't further damage them at this point.

Well that is not Absolute's decision as to whether they can be charged somewhere somehow with a crime. Hopefully jail time becomes an option.

no but morally reporting them to the authorities and handing over their evidence would seem the right thing to do since they are putting the entire company at risk of failure. And they are theives

It's funny that just 2 or 3 days ago AP was threatening to sue members of the 2p2 community for defaming their character.

LOL....Oh how far we've come in this little journey.

There are a lot of posts on this theme.
Can you express what you believe the difference is between Absolute Poker and the people who are being removed from teh internets, as I think there's some misunderstanding here.

And it wouldn't hurt turning the info over to Interpol, so other jurisdictions can get their pound of flesh if they so desire.
