FCP Bob 1,321 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Travis Makar who was Russ Hamilton's computer guy has released two audio recordings of Hamilton discussing the cheating along with two UB lawyers and UB founder founder Greg Pierson. The tapes were recorded by Hamilton himself. I haven't had a chance yet to listen to all of it but it fascinating stuff and leaves no doubt how scummy Hamilton and Pierson are. The first two links are to pretty good articles summing things up and the two You Tube links and last link are to an edited shortened version and to the actual recordings themselves.

Cruz 2 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 There's a couple of things that really bothers me about Annie Duke using the Superuser software on a 15 minute delay. First of all that she was able to study her opponents in a way that no one has ever been able to study their opponents is flat out cheating. Especially with the relatively small player pool at the stakes she played, she received a huge unfair edge. The other thing that bothers me is that, as smart as Annie Duke is, I just can't believe that she was unaware that the God-mode could be used in real time. How could that possibly have not crossed her mind? Link to post Share on other sites

How could that possibly have not crossed her mind? When i had access to some of the On Game software support features I could call up a hand history right after a hand was played. The process was a bit time consuming but it could have been misused. It's why I wasn't allowed to play on the site other than in some of the FCP promo tourneys. Link to post Share on other sites
