Not saying this isn’t true but seems suspicious to me. How would this work? I don’t see how a phone is picking up the cards without it being obvious. Wouldn’t the camera have to be pointed at them?
No idea. But the guy has been a reg for a while there making tons of FT’s. I dont have the technical details on how he cheated.

The idiocy involved in trying to cheat in a casino if you arent a professional cheater is off the charts

The prize for being an utter asshole and most likely a cheater? A seat at the juiciest game on stream. That’s what we deserve i suppose.
Assume you mean Martin?
Bart goes over some hands posted by Mason and David from their upcoming book. Just lol. I hope this book sells millions. It should single handedly add a couple BB/h to my win rate if enough people read and follow it in my pool.
A couple of these are so bad you almost think they are made up.

I would hope there are more egregious examples of bad analysis in the book, because Bart is getting himself lost in the weeds here with the math rather than just saying,
"They’re right that the flush draw doesn’t have the odds to call. The only real issue is if this opponent will call a 1/2-3/4 pot size bet with his A if the flush hits.
Sorry, but you queued up a nothingburger.
The first hand he talks about is just lol

I’m not sure which scandal is going on, but at this point surely they could do a “Scumbag Week” and only seat known scammers. Should be easy to fill those seats and good for ratings.

Although the advice in that book seems not great, got to tip my cap to Sklansky. He did lay down a savage dunk in that thread.

Bart is probably right that a non-studying player who has never read a poker book won’t be hurt by reading this book.
So, in the KK hand, over-limping might be the most profitable strategy–and one I have used–if the probability of a raise behind you exceeds a certain threshold, but S&M give no reason for why you should believe a raise is likely and it’s a piss-poor heuristic to use against unknown players.
Folding KK on that flop is perhaps defensible against passive players, but maybe you should be raising preflop in the first place against that lineup. However, I’m pretty sure you should be folding KK if the player leading out is Slansky or Malmuth.
There’s a shocker

Least shocking thing ever.
He said that because it’s so +ev the more people who read this.
Most losing players play too many hands and go too far with them. Simply tightening up will improve their results and is unlikely to hurt them.
