you have top pair against the guy playing and winning every hand through aggression, you have to make a stand.

although i do find it odd they were in the same tourney with very similar names.

They know its a forum and they aren't going to take everything seriously.

Its basically the reason they still haven't picked up the story.

wow... just... wow :O

I just dont understand why AP is taking so long to get a statement out there, when obviously (local) news media all around the world are picking up the stories

to just reinforce what ad said, this is what I said in the last thread

[ QUOTE ]

Guys, please refrain from witch hunts for now. It is pretty scary and could get us into trouble. We have absolute by the balls and we should just keep up the pressure on spreading the news of what we 100% KNOW is cheating.

[/ QUOTE ]

The more noise you create the less people will focus on the undeniable facts. Our focus should be on spreading the word and not going on witch hunts. We know cheating exists, we have a very strong case and there is no point diluting our case by going on a witchhunt.

[/ QUOTE ]

Can we have a witch-hunt-thread then? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

McBill and Oscar133 are so suspicious.

But I understand completely, I wont post anymore witch-huntish. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

MODS I understand your concern,

Earlier in this thread though you had someone talking about a hit job on Scott Tom by Eastern European Mobsters?????

I think the guy who mentioned POTROAST is just keeping an eye out. And since POTCHOPPER is supposedly a name that he has on UB I just decided to mention it might be something to look into.

What do the 'internet' say about this hand? Can we decide now if it is or isn't relevant quickly here? This thread gets side-tracked so easily.

Also I'm sorry I keep mentioning this but, how do we know this guy at AP got fired for sending the Master Hand History. Seems to be hearsay at this point and since we want to get all the facts straight and not put out false information, it would help if we knew what the guy's name is and when he got fired?

Adanthar / Gild,

I understand what you are saying about witchhunts, but isn't 1 - off winners of the big absolute tourneys at least somewhat wierd...?

In the same way TheV0id was a wierd case @ Stars.... these wierd 1 off wins are definitely worth checking out to some degree ?

Jcsmitty (sp?) also mentioned FANS & Ugaistheteam mentionedTxgolfer25 ? Any news there ?

Vava

Edited to add:

I understand the anoyance of these "witchhunts" but like people have mentioned.... we could have the tip of the iceberg with all these big wins...

Has anyone else tried to get tournament hand histories from AP?

I've been trying and gotten no response, 48 hours and counting. Specifically hand histories for the 100K bounty tournaments.
