Not sure how well this guy is known on the uk circuit but this looks pretty bad.

Yikes.

Loved that 'Stars apologised because they could not refund the full amount. They only sent him $34,400 out of the total of $34,800......!

I may have missed it, but what was the answer to "how come you were all playing Online in Vegas"?

Were 'Stars aware of that when they refunded him the money? Seems a tad odd.

Some nasty types out there.

Josh Tyler is one of those names I have heard a ton of times being associated with rumours of cheating but nothing concrete - this one seems a bit more substantial.

WCGRider runs bad, or is too trusting, he got scammed by Brad Booth for about $50k too.

Josh Tyler has been mentioned on here before...

lol, well if anyone has heard the Josh Tyler story it's actually the other way round, I think Feldman just tried to spread it that way.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

At least he didn't make it obvious he could see his opponents cards. Oh wait..

Never understand how people can be intelligent enough to hack someone's accounts/pcs and then stupid enough to try and shear the sheep 100 times in an hour. Good grief, how doesn't he make bad calls, get it in bad sometimes- could have done him for 6 figures in a month without suspicion

For every clown who gets caught, there are surely a number who are quietly, gently, rinsing other players.

Totally agree and the numbers doing the cheating are much larger than anyone could imagine. I imagine.

I just flat out don't trust anyone I can't see and even when I can, I often don't!
