My rebuttal to Mark Seif on RawVegas.TV

On a side note. Just got done talking to a friend who used to work for Absolute. He said absolutely he fully expected something like this. He worked in both their Vancouver and Costa Rica offices and said management was a joke.

Does your friend, or any other AP employer, know, that there were HHs older than X months/year?

If enough people (that had inside access to the data) could "testify" (??) that AP had HHs older than, say 1 year, it could get interesting.

If they don't have hand histories, how are they going to calculate the reparations they allege they're going to make?

Seems like a big coincidence that they only have HHs up to point where the cheating was blatant.

I just emailed PokerStars support and asked them if I could get a hand history that was more than a year old.

The reply from them is pretty clear:

Hello,

Thank you for your email.

We can provide you with every real money hand you have every played on PokerStars, no matter how long ago the hand was played.

If we can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.

i guess stars decided it was wise to spend a couple hundred bucks on storage... weird of them to do something silly like that

i know it isnt proof that absolute purposefully destroyed evidence... but id say its a pretty valid assumption under the circumstances

ive never even played on absolute... but really they dont deserve to continue doing business... and at least should be shut down til these audits are complete (if they are even valid)

im really starting to think that as much as you guys have uncovered... its just the tip of the iceberg... and somewhere in some costa rican trash heap is a bunch of shredded documents and bits and pieces of shattered hard drives..

actually strike that... they are probably too stupid to destroy the evidence... they just tell us that its not there, just like there was no cheating in the 1st place...

AJ Green = Cheney
Scott Tom = Bush
Mark Seif = Rumsfield

Would your friend be willing to come here and post about his experiences as an AP employee? We would be very, very happy to have him here.

[pokerpunchout]

Solid, well spoken. With your ability to coherently write and express your ideas I don't understand why do you not have a spokesperson deal with a major poker site? You would probably make a fairly decent PR man.

Speaking of... isn't this going to make them "fail" the inspection?
