60 Minutes Online Absolute Poker Scandal

[gobigpoker]

i grinded 4000 dollars from scratch on pokerstars....that was when poker was legal

[Saxors007]

So tell me you silly people,how do some people make money then?

Pull your heads out of your asses a bit,because you're beeing paranoid.

[comidaparaperro]

@Saxors007 People do make money, but some patterns merit reflection, is not paranoia, rather critical thinking, follow my link if you want to educate yourself a lilltle on the matter. For the record, I am a winning online player, but still see some really odd stuff, like time dealys when dealing a river, that then is a bad beat river. here's the link: en.rigged-poker.info/content/o­nline-poker-rigged-or-not

[AZ520ful]

I got a lifetime ban for telling pokerstars there shit was rigged.

[19Biohazard88]

the real cheaters don't get caught, they keep their heads low so they won't stand out still making thousands of dollars a year

[thestoryplease]

The "people" cheating were connected to absolute and Ultimate Bet which are connected to each other. Coincidence? They were able to get into the program to see everyone's hands - hmmmm - either the security is VERY loose at these sites or it seems very possible to me, that who ever runs these sites decided to make u p some extra cash by jacking their own system.

[b1nside]

Whoever did that must go to the jail for the rest of the life... oh wait, i got a better idea: TORTURE him and then KILL him .

[eldar600]

Online poker , i am new to poker , so can you win real money online ?

[butters226]

@eldar600 yeah, but good luck trying to withdraw if you live in the US...

[pokerpadawan]

Guess they got greedy that's why they got caught, employees or even family members of employees for poker sites should not be allowed to play.. this is just common sense for casinos and poker sites.. because of these isolated cases, online poker sites are getting bad rep from people, especially the losers.. lost a lot of money on various sites, just lost $150 an hour ago at BlindHit.com, and i ain't complaining or nor am i ranting that these sites are rigged..

[papichulobumber1]

lets be fair, everbody who would get the ability to see the hole cards would use that ability. I would, i just wouldve been a bit more carefull. 

[staphinfection]

Idiots.... GREEDY idiots.

If you have this capability, loss hands often enough so that you don't get caught.

[casio124478]

Take UK fruit machines. The programmers purposely put leaks into the code that allow cheats to empty them.

They type a code or make a certain move and jackpot rolls in.

Nothing stops these human made programs of online 'poker' to code in all kinds of sick, profit increasing crap, from rigged action hands which anyone with HEM can see at FTP, to built in house players that can earn some extra on the side.

Any site regulated by the Kawanake, people are mad to trust their money with them.

[crocfme]

It was the players, not the sites that exposed this scam........Just think about that, think long and hard about it.........

[crocfme]

@crocfme Too slow on this one, weren't you?

[teamkillers755]

@crocfme lol long and hard

[teamkillers755]

@crocfme haha long and hard

[kangol12323]

the people that make poker software are 12-14 year tech majors or some shit like that...theres no way for scripted code to get caught. scripted such as fake people so your playing the computer.....in the old software u could find fake players by searching them when u lose shady hands. there making millions of dollars an hour...all the pros benefit from it. play live poker and u will c how much more u will win

[Hajboya3]

his name is Russ Hamilton!

hes one of the main guys iinvolved and to add insult to injury he WAS a champion in the 1994 WSOP...

no champion in my eyes of course

he stole a good portion of the money from Mike Matusow .

[alexdeburgess]

i vote a bigger site paid them to get caugh so people would go to the safer sites. thye woudlnt be too stupid to get caught

[kinglanky93]

Theres nothing that can be done legally. The sites should have just found out who the cheaters were and out them to the poker community. Thats how you handle poker cheaters. out em and let the players handle it from there. And there's a good chance somebody is gonna get hurt. But thats what they get.

[Donkeyhawk]

I'll murk that fat motherfucker who was cheating if soeone payed me like 10 g's

[Rickwright0001]

ok

address?

[crocfme]

When will people wake up? If it hapenned here; its hapenning everywhere.

Anything online can be hacked.

[koans808]

This is the smartest scandal ever.

[trickmast]

No it's not, they could have made it less obvious, that may have been slightly smart.

[Lex3M]

simple: if there is big money to be made with people will always find the ways to cheat at it.

[outragedthrone]

thats not true lex u can't cheat me in a casino poker. i know the game reall well, thats y i stoped playing for reall money online unless it's with my friends

[Yamakashi1]

u cant beat online poker?

[24magiccarrot]

@Yamakashi1 Actually you can, cause I do? If your not winning from online poker over the long run your doing something wrong not the software people are always looking for something to blame other than themselves.

Trust me the more right decisions I make in a month the more money I make in a month.

However it did take a lot of years a lot of mistakes and a lot of losses to figure out how to do it but it is possible, just because its not easy doesn't mean its not possible.

[Yamakashi1]

@24magiccarrot nah man , i think i was answering somebody. it was a question directed at smbody ,u see?

anyways, what limit do u play

[24magiccarrot]

@24magiccarrot. I'm a tournament player mainly multi tabling Sit N Go's I'm only playing $20 buy ins at the minute but I'm slowly building up my bankroll, I'm hoping to turn pro in the next year over the past few months I've been averaging about $80 an hour but I want to get some money at the back of me for some insurance in case it goes wrong. (also my bankroll took a hit last month I played rush poker whilst drunk and lost about $500 in about an hour I'll never make that mistake again)

[JimmyBluffet67]

@24magiccarrot What you need to do is go give blow jobs to homos and that will build your bank roll........you fucking faggot. I would own your ass at the table

[24magiccarrot]

@defect530 Its a completley different game playing for points or free rolls than it is playing for money, but points/freerolls is a good way to start if you want to learn the game, but people play differently when they don't have anything to lose. People chase draws and make hero calls they otherwise would never make.

If you do want to start out for free your best to find an online poker school that offer free start up bankrolls to help you start out.

[ilagan1]

Fuck you, ultimate bet made this video so they can balme past workers, when really they are the ones doing it.

Sick thiefing tramps

[kenocartel]

no prosecutions...wow...can you imagine stealing 20 million dollars and getting away with it? online poker is a ponzi scheme...the only winners are the ones that cheat...play in a casino where its relatively safe

[goofywilly]

in the old days poker cheats were taken out and shot...ahh the good ole days!

[choddeii]

Fucken AP. Fucken knew it. I'm too good to lose legitely.

[hionfidelity]

all online poker is rigged..the end.

[scubasteve0225]

@hionfidelity

no. you just arent a winning player.  the end.

[lehapankov]

@hionfidelity you are an idiot

[cruss11]

i hate AP it's so rigged

[dubbedcrazy]

I TOLD YOU SO
