I'm pretty awful at manipulating the pot to my liking.

Cheating "super-user" account at Absolute Poker?

This is the third "summary" thread about this possible scandal at the 2+2 forums, its been discussed all weekend long. Usually these guys are the first to shout down anyone who claims online poker is rigged, so for these guys to say that something is really rotten going on here, I tend to believe it.

I don't think people realize how impossible it is to play 190 hands HEADS UP with the stats he had AND NEVER ONCE CALL ON THE RIVER.


Im a believer, never playing online again... havent in awhile anyway...

just imagine if the cheater(s) had any idea of how to be more discrete and occasionally make calls to lose here and there as to not arouse suspicion, they couldve milked the cow for a long long time.

that's the one thing that's not clear, from what I gather he's getting lumped in this unecessarily.

all seems for nothing being that Absolute found nothing wrong and has stated that no other persons whole cards get sent to anyone but themselves in their software.......

but something like a trojan would get around that....

sounds like the natives getting rowdy, but some of those stats are basically perfect for a decent sample size of hands.... like really really perfect....

yeah, you want to say a guy has a VERY unusual run at 90% of seeing a flop with a 70% win rate is one thing. BUT to never call with the worst hand in that same time period is next to impossible. THEN that same guy after a thread is posted about him goes on the "worst" run and folds bets in limit at the river even with good pot odds to call a bluff. Chip dump to try to prove innocence?

the chip dump is basically the dumbest thing they could have done, it screams guilty.....

No discussion of Jean Robert Bellande on Survivor China? Looks like he got really fat since I last saw him on the WSOP. He'll be an interesting character on that show
you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

I never saw him at the WSOP, I always remember him and his antics at the US poker championship at the Taj.

I stopped watching Survivor 4 years ago, so I didnt watch it, maybe Ill watch an episode or 2 to see how he does.
