the only site out there who have been confirmed as cheats absolute owners also stole money. what do you think about people accepting sponsorship deals from them? absolute and UB are in effect the same company (one is just a skin of the other I think) They are owned by the same company Tikworo Enterprises, but they are not skins of each other. The have entirely seperate player databases and there is no crossover. Also if im not mistaken Tikworo were not the owners of UB when the original scandal hit.that's right...though how they didn't find out during their due diligence is a bit of a surprise. |

I know..I am stunned at how even the poker press hasn't jumped on this and destroyed UB. |

you cant regulate companies that are based in the cayman islands etc and are internet based. The stupid port rugulations act that made online gamblind illegal has also made sure it cant be regulated. The yanks fcked us twice in effect. |

I have a feeling there will be a 60 minutes type program on this in the run up to the wsop final table which really will effect not only their sites but all others ( no smoke without fire and the trust of all sites will be destroyed for the recreational player= easy wages gone). |

I wonder how many players that play on UB now realise about this scandal we could all go on and flood all the games with the 2+2 investigation LOL |

Yeah apparently 60 minutes has interviewed several 2+2 people I hope the backlash isn't too bad for the other sites but have a feeling it will be an "all internet poker is evil" sort of thing |

Surely there could be a well balanced take on internet poker published / aired , given the journos that lay the game one would think someone would have taken the mantle.
