Today, on his blog, Daniel Negreanu do not go with the back of the dead hand: "nothing in this interview doesn't surprise me much and I expect other revelations in the coming months. It goes without saying, UB is a corrupt company and your money is not safe at home".
He speaks of course of the interview of Travis Makar.
In this interview, Travis Makar confirms what many people think. Speaking of the reaction of the leaders of UB on the superuser scandal unveiled in 2008: "they have provided the information that they wished to broadcast. There were other scandals that Ultimate Bet did not want to reveal. There were many other cheats that they did not come out". According to him, it now knows only a fraction of this fraud management.
At the time, concluded that the accounts of superusers (with which it is possible to see the cards of all players) had operated between 2006 and 2007. Russ Hamilton was appointed as a main culprit of this history of cheating.
Speaking of Russ Hamilton, according to tell of Travis Makar, Annie Duke would have borrowed it money for the purchase of a house in Los Angeles. When the scandal broke, it would have simply decided to no longer reimburse him. Ethical or not?
After the scandal, Ultimate Bet had decided to change its name to UB.
Phil LeDinge, a member of PokerCollectif played on tables high Ultimate Bet limits in 2006-2007. It is reasonable to think that he could be victim of superuser account. To investigate, it decided to ask the site history of hands that he has played during this period, what seems quite legitimate. But not according to Ultimate Bet because he was denied this request. Many people think that if they came to the big day all persons who have been victims of this cheat and UB had to repay the players, it will be bankruptcy.
