if i am at home in same satellite as one of my mates i will give him a walk. no brainer. not remotely moody in my opinion. as long as we are not skypeing or facebook (or sharing the same sofa).

dont really understand how you cant see the difference.

fairplay for finally coming clean, would be nice  to see guy come on and say his piece but he obviously does not think  its necessary .

people in the satellite(s) that you colluded in have lost equity. of course they should be pissed off. aside from all the nuthugging keep posting comments i am sure that majority of people feel mugged off but do not want to rock the boat anymore.

i would not have even posted about it myself but the post you made this morning was a joke.

Fair enough sir.

I've said all I am going to say on it now, I understand a lot of people are going to be pissed off and I once again apologise to the people who tried to help / had faith in me. I feel awful that I let all these people down and it is up to me to somehow try and make it up to them / regain their trust. I'm not overly fussed what people who don't know me / already don't like me / only post when there is blood to be had,  think about me tbh. Please fill your boots and say what you like but I wont be replying to anyone on the matter any further.

Everything that anyone needs to know is already written itt so there is no need for me to say anything else. Thanks.

Dont want to be getting involved really but have you come clean now because you have your roll and all the money back?

Also if you admit you cheated but youve been refunded are you going to give up the prize money. You argued innocence got all your money back then came clean seems very coincidental to me.

Obv I dont know the specifics but I got the impression Milli got his roll back without any prize money.

Just clarified this is correct. All prize money was confiscated and the 1k roll was on a separate iPoker site, which refunded Milli after he was banned from the network.

Think this is a huge step forward for poker, don't understand why guy limped the button with 108o regardless - he has enough chips just sit out and this doesn't happen.

And writing anything down for anyone to see is clearly detrimental to why u owned up so another lesson there.

Think guy owes alex an apology tbh, alex was pretty sincere with his original post, and it was a very rude reply by guy IMO, specially in light of what has been said since.

Don't see why it should affect ur posting rights, but out of respect I would stop saying anything negative about DTD on forum.

Given these two characters have played numerous dtd sats before is this the only time when they got caught with their hands in the cookie jar going to be investigated?Huh?  I have pure bubbled at least 2 dtd sat's when guy was playing in a 'massiviely sub optimal' manner close to the bubble.  I am pretty sure there could easily be other players he colluded with in the past when it suited him and/or both parties.  This is just the only time he was caught.  Given the idiotic nature of this case surely there must be numerous other cases of obvious collusion when people are just too polite to complain like Nico did.  It's easy to ban these chancers/grimmers whatever you want to call them after they get caught on a one off instance but do you really think it only went on once?  Surely every time they both went deep in a dtd sat should be investigated and people who have potentially been cheated against be refunded.

Nico and james browning get gifted £1100 seats because of their stupid/cheating bubble play in the sat in question but what about the other hundreds of sats where they could have done the same and people have lost out on £50/£500/£1000 seats into future dtd events and people have been cheated against but get no compensation?Huh?  They are stupid enough to come on here and admit they cheated which is comical in itself after spending weeks proclaiming how badly they were treated. 

Fair play to dtd for busting both of these cheats during one of DTD's biggest PR events in their history.  A lot of bigger PLC casino's would have just brushed it under the carpet and moved on to avoid the potential negative publicity it would bring.

hes come clean, and paying for his crime now. hardly grimmed anyone and something alot of people would do in similar spots in sure. seems most people are more disappointed in his lying about it all as opposed to the soft play.

Refrained from commenting previously but I actually have randomly seen the AA hand history, the BB is 7k and guy limps the BTN off chunks, because the SB has 7 or 8k, which I think we'll all agree is very stnd (trying to showdown the hand with the BB and hopefully bust the SB as its 2 to the money I think) then bizarrely the SB folds.... I think Dave has ~40k... I can't for the life of me figure out WHY you didn't just jam pre flop and pick up the dead money, unless you were trying to not look like you were colluding...

All this fair play for coming clean stuff seems a bit donk to me, coming clean looks like the worst decision you guys made in this affair tbh - cant see anyone who benefits from it. I doubt you set out planning to collude and a bit of soft play deep in a satellite isn't the worst crime, but sharing hole cards is 1000% cheating and where the line of "meh gonna give my pal a walk here I have heaps" turns into the type of offence that you should be banned for. Sorry state of affairs.

I've given it a few days now so hopefully everyone who wanted to has had the chance to comment. As I said previously I have said everything that I am going to say and all the information anyone could require is itt already. Once again I apologise to all the people who stuck up for us / helped us out. I still feel bad for them and I imagine it will stay like that for a while.

Real life update:

Even before I was threatened with being banned from most casinos and major online sites in Britain I had already made my mind up that I was likely to be a full time stay at home dad (SAHD) for the foreseeable. In May the missus is going away on a 3 month course so it makes sense to start from then. I already look after Amelie on Fridays but 5 days a week is a whole different ball game, especially if the wife is not around to help in the evenings. Good thing is I wont be able to leave the house at night to get takeaways so will probs lose a shit load of weight, the bad thing is I had planned to watch every game of the world cup uninterrupted. Still, I know it will be fun, there are not many men who get to spend as much time with their kids as I do / will and it is something I cherish.

I could have got a job and kept Amelie in full time nursery but it is quite likely that we will be moving to Wales at the beginning of the next year so I don't really see the point getting a job for less than a year, plus I really don't want to ever get a 'proper job' again. Should find out if we are moving in the middle of November, so fingers crossed. I could carry on grinding with pokers but it hasn't been going overly well so far. I still struggle with tilt management; on Monday I ended up punching the wall after I made a pretty terrible river call, then a guy played awful and got lucky, after that I just monkey tilted; I was up £160 after 4hrs grinding then down to like - £70 within 90 seconds and for rubs I logged out so fast that PT4 didn't get the last hand so it is trying to claim I was in profit.. I know some people have found the perfect balance but I have struggled so far. I could just be family man by day and earn a little bit of pocket money at night but we will see. We are still up overall since we started grinding full time but I would need to bink like £5k between now and the end of May to be on target with my initial plans, certainly not impossible but I just think I am better suited to being a family man than a button clicker.

The first of my family man duties was to go into the forest, cut down a tree and craft this beauty with my bare hands.

 Click to see full-size image.


8 seater and very robust. I even jumped on top of it and it didn't wobble a bit. Hopefully we have a nice summer so we can haz plenty of BBQs.

On another note I turn 30 in 2 weeks time. The missus asked me what I wanted to do, I said "nothing". Have asked what I want as a present, I said "nothing". I've turned into such a miserable prick. When I turned 21 I had parties in London, Lincoln and York with all my different sets of mates. I spent the whole week smashed and smashing, was incred, but now I shudder at the thought of going out clubbing for my birthday. Tempted to hire a log cabin which has a hot tub and it's own private fishing post and just go away for a long wknd. Anyone got any ideas of what to do for a significant birthday?

Lolz, the instructions were utterly horrific. I had to email the seller and ask for them in colour. They were just a photocopy and the images were black blobs but they never got back to me.. I ended up printing out a pic of how it should look when finished then trying some reverse engineering..

Never heard of 'Oppo' but just seen on trip advisor and it's 3rd best restaurant in sua, reasonably priced as well. Will check it out one time. Maybe for her bday, I wanna go fishing now. Smiley

Just looking at darts bets now in fact. Not found anything yet, but will post if I do. Did you see the DC's bet of Ando most 180s on the night @9/1?
