Casinomeister already rogued AP

[/ QUOTE ]

I looked on their site and AP is listed under the "not recommended" category and not the "rogue" category.

Have they just not made the change yet?

It's all the same, it's a degree of Rogueville shared with the likes of Futurebet. Notice the header of the page is "CASINOMEISTER'S ROGUE PIT" and the title is "Rogue and Blacklisted Casinos". Also the url is rogue/index.php.

I see that Cardplayer has AP banner ads.

Maybe we should email some of these media sites (Cardplayer,Bluff,G911) and get the story out?

I did that when Party stole $5 Million from their players in the 'Monster' scandal.
Those mags are not about to shoot themselves in the foot unless they are forced to.

IMO AP management being in on this is MUCH more likely than somebody hacking into their system.

on top of that...CardPlayer isn't exactly in love with 2+2 and vice-versa.
If 2+2 is against something it wouldn't surprise me if that made CP more in favor of it.

Maybe they'll do something about one of their major advertisers anyway...but I'm not holding my breath.

Suddenly U.S. regulation is sounding like not such a bad thing.

As a European, It never ceases to amaze me how some Americans tend to think everything on the whole world is subject to their regulation..

Obviously the regulations from Europe aren't getting the job done if this is happening.

Someone who is advocating "US regulation" is presumably meaning an online poker world where sites would be regulated in the US, rather than banned.

Obviously, operations that operate outside the US would still me subject to regulation in their home country.

I don't understand what European regulations would ever have to do with a Costa Rica-based operation. It's worth noting that European-based services, operating in European regulations, are not subject to these same accusations as Absolute Poker.


Sites such as Party, Stars, and the Swedish one are far more reputable than Abssolute or FTP.

Oops.

For moment I forgot AP was in Costa Rica and not on the other side of the pond.

Carry on, carry on.

It is possible this is all explainable for innocent reasons.

There are hundreds of tournaments in play every second in the world. Thus, it is not out of the realm that a few players will eventually hit some very high outlier statistic during the play of one. We've all had donkeys who just (can't stop sucking out all night). Even if this was a million to one shot, there are people winning the lottery all the time at even worse odds.

Another explanation is, maybe he is just psychic. After all, Brunson mentions all good poker players have some form of ESP. Maybe we finally found the proof about ESP to remove doubts from all world skeptics.

My 2 cents, I just thought the villain needed SOMEONE to defend him here.

Defending the cheater here is a little bit like claiming that 2 + 2 = 5 because everyone else correctly realises that 2 + 2 = 4.
