Talking to people is a dangerous game when money is involved...

Wonder how thy know the theft amounts to £300,000?

Guess it sounds better than "might have been quite a lot".

Did anything ever come of this?

Similar case being "investigated" in the US at the moment.   It appears over there sometimes the cheater had access to hole card info and sometimes he knew the deck like this guy did.

Player disappeared, never to be seen again is my understanding.

There was talk by players of pushing the casino for compo, but it was all very hush hush.

I’m not sure if anything was ever paid to any player, presumably there must have been something as there was a core of players who played there religiously.

All in all, for making the front page of the Daily Record and the alleged amount of money involved here this really didn’t get much traction by the poker community.

By comparison, current events surrounding the Postle case have electrified poker forums through out the world.

Thanks for the replies.  It appears this guy in Glasgow got away with more than Postle as well.  I think the reason the Postle case has exploded so much is all his sessions are on video online for everyone to watch.  If the same applied to the Alea cheat it would have got mega traction as well.
