I'm right there with you - I have tears in my eyes from laughing so hard.

Anyway, I think the following sentence really sums up this entire AP situation perfectly:

With the two threads going and no mention of it here I wanted to make sure all saw this. AP confessed to P5's and AP should be releasing an update and refunding players. A huge step in the right direction to getting to the bottom of all of this fraud.

Thanks for drawing attention to that, PA - having two threads is proving confusing and counter-productive on this important issue.

AP finally (if belatedly) 'fessing up is a ringing endorsement for the power and skill of player communities when this sort of incident occurs and the initial response by the operator is to try and blow it off....perhaps it will serve as a lesson and a warning for the future.

Just a quick note to say that Pokeraddict and the rest of the players who kept ramming these posts to the top until Absolute, Kahnawake, and the online poker community as a whole took this seriously deserve a lot of credit for all of their effort. Pokeraddict in particular has been extremely prolific both here and on 2+2.

Thanks to everyone who got involved, and thank you to Bryan for following up with Kahnawake, Absolute, Michael Shackleford and Eliot Jacobson.

Just a quick note to mention that AP's page in the rogue section is being updated to reflect the recent happenings.

One thing - it ain't over yet. What needs to be determined at this stage is how long has this been going on? Obviously, there is a super-admin account, or whatever you want to call it, and my guess is that it has probably been used before this episode.

Perhaps the guy using it now was a cyber suicide bomber not caring if he was going to be caught or not; a disgruntled employee or ex-employee.

BLAM! There goes Absolute Poker.

Exclamation ADMIN NOTE: Thread cleanup

I'm leaving this thread be, and closing the other AP thread in the complaints section since it was getting a bit confusing.
http://www.casinomeister.com/forums/...ker-issue.html

If you feel that any of the posts from the other thread need to be moved here, please let me or Simmo! know via PM.

Danke.

I think the initiating post by BBK Poker on this thread was an important contribution to overall understanding, because it so well summarised the somewhat complicated happenings up to that date.

So it's a good idea to keep this thread alive in the more visited general section of the forum.

However, there was a lot of really good deductive stuff and detail in the "complaints" thread as well, and although an unenviable task I think it might be worth yours/Simmo's time to trawl through it and extract the meatier bits for transfer here so we have a more complete record of what is sure to go down in the annals of the industry as a (bad) legendary issue.

I'm hoping that Absolute releases this forthcoming statement before the weekend, as the manner in which they handle this crisis from now on will finally make or break their reputation imo.

OMG... all the good stuff happens in the forum after I go to bed...

This is all so.... astounding.... the implications for online casinos/players are mind boggling...

Keep the news flowing... it ain't near over, yet.
