I've been backpacking around Europe for the past 5 months and missed all this. Is it worth it to read through all those threads?

There's a few coles notes threads around. Essentially, some accounts were winning consistently against the best players in Absolute for a few weeks, playing like maniacs, almost always doing the correct decision on the river, as if they could see hole cards. (For many of the times they did fold preflop it was confirmed that a player had a premium PP).

Then, after the accusations were leveled here, one of the accounts went online and started playing badly, losing a lot. It makes no sense for a player to do so if they were not cheating in some way.

There was also some confirmed chip dumping.

---

Essentially, there doesn't seem to be any reasonable explanation for what happened without some sort of cheating going on at some point. They will likely never admit it though.

So an account that was created today posts that and is considered legit? Buyer Beware!
