RE: The Curious Case Of The Poker Cheat

in #poker6 years ago

I watch a bit about this from Doug Polk and honestly for people who are all about the stats and how others play I feel they were a bit thick and he was a complete imbecile for not having the sense to lose more often. Strategy my ass he was just greedy.

Sort:  

I think it's harsh to say that they were a bit thick not to notice earlier. I watched a podcast with Joey Ingram and a guy called Domar I think. Anyway he played in the games against Postle and even made a video "Avoid Mike Postle".

He was saying that it's only when you look at everything together that it looks fishy. Anyone can run great when playing, so if you play against somebody that does once in a while you don't automatically think cheat.

Also JFK was very careful not to allow poker pros into the commentary booth after June 18th, probably because he knew they would spot something fishy.

Also it's easy to say they should have lost more. However when you know you can see every hand, it must get very difficult to play a hand honestly. But yes I agree, they were just greedy narcissists and I hope they lose all the money and more back through the lawsuit.

Yeah maybe a bit harsh, I hope they have thick skin then :)True if someone has a run like that once in a while and you do not play them all the time that in itself lends it to just thinking well it is his lucky day until you go hey: Everyday is your lucky day it seems.
