I think you guys are getting all worked up over nothing. I've seen people play crazy like that all the time and sometimes it works. You all seem bitter because you believe that poker should be a game of skill and get really pissed whenever someone gets lucky (like all the hate for Gold and Yang) and can't accept that someone could have just been playing stupid and winning. I really think that is the most plausible theory.

Thanks for playing. Have you read anything posted here?

Do not do this if you live in one of the 'two party consent' states.

HOLY [censored] THEY CAN SEE UR WHOLE CARDS AT ABSOLUT POOKER!?!?!?

For some reason I detect a hint of sarcasm there. No, for once this is actually serious and not someone saying "OMG I GOTZ RIVERED SO ONLINE POKER IS RIGGED!!!"

[/ QUOTE ]

Lolz I was actually poking fun at all the people that seemingly refuse to read any of the threads over the past weeks but continue to post reatarded asinine questions. It's not like it's srs biz, I imagine I can just skim past their posts, but still thought i'd poke a little fun.

Interesting article here (although translated from spanish and hard to read, appears to be a Costa Rican news story) about a plane crash or near accident anyway. I lists Scott Phillip Tom as the CEO of Absolute and UB as late as 9-14-07

http://www.onlinecasinosandplayers.c...num=1189786905

It also lists a Oscar Tatum as CFO if I am reading it right

adanthar I don't think those laws matter at all in this case. Dan will be recording a call with a party outside of the States.
