Update On Player Caught Cheating

PartyPokers Investigation

This is what I thought would happen. Party sends out a clear message that cheating will not be allowed. I'm not going to get into a long post about this subject. Its cheating, plain and simple. I heard several players say "hey, its wrong but how can ya regulate it". Party did a 140K regulating job today.

Last night, Tulalip Casino $110 buyin, 100 players built a prize pot $10,100 ($100 added) and played for a 1st prize of 3K.

Talked my Dad into playing and he played well until getting in with KK with about 40 players left. Ran into AA, nh gg. He has only played a few tourneys and I think he could be a really great player.

I busted out about 24th. Had a nice stack early (12K an hour in, we start with 3K) and tried to bluff into a made hand. I fired on the flop turn and riv, callcallcall. I could tell he was afraid of his hand but the bad play was on me. Coulda found a better spot. Now I have 3K, build it back up to 11K but know the blinds are 1K/2K and I need chips. With about 8K left I get it all in with KJo, big stack calls with A10o and its good nite sharkmasta.

I'm killing 3/6 to 5/10 limit short online lately and looking to add tables and hours now that the Shark sites are pretty much built and runnin smooth. I'm also getting a ton of help from Doug (connjure) my Marketing Mgr and Michelle (chippies) our forum moderator, staked playa, mom, biz owner, and all around great helper/friend. I hope to meet you both in Vegas (May 23rd, SharkFest!).

If anyone would like to meet a few of our members, Raisin and yer hero (me) check out details to our first Shark Convention. My guess is it will be very small but will grow in coming years. I'm hoping for 20-30 players. I'm buying a nice dinner for all, paying for a glitzy Vegas show (Mirage Volcano Show)and we will have private sit n gos and large fun. I'll be there all week, come anytime during the week (or weekend) whatever works for you. If you have any questions post them in our Forum.

SharkFest STARTs May 23rd!
