Oh, please. Any time there is a lot of money on the line, someone will be angling for it. I don't care if it's Wall Street, or politics, or "the world of poker". There's a reason why the casinos spend so much money on security, looking for cheats - and it's not because they like throwing money away. The cheats are always there.

@@jajo7 This is why all modern and legit live streams have a 2-5 minute delay. Having a zero delay live stream combined with typical Microsoft-level security is asking to get hacked. This is as an ex-IT professional who also did systems hardening. Finding laughably insecure systems was commonplace in my work. Having a person on the inside helping would make it trivial, but he also might have simply cracked their pitiful security or have a friend in one of the rooms close enough to the broadcast room/equipment to also hack into it via numerous methods or a simple scanner if they are using something like old CRT displays or an old non-shielded mixing board for the audio stream. With the right equipment you can get a live stream of the commentary and then getting the information back to him is also trivial if he's allowed to use a cell phone or the room isn't RF shielded to make texts and so on impossible. So, did he cheat? Yes. But did the casino make it trivial for him to do so due to their failure to understand how to harden their systems? Yes as well. EDIT - yes, I do live in Las Vegas and the major tournaments go through quite a few steps to keep their games secure. This could only happen at some third-rate place in another state.

It's how he acted during the hand, and this one is used to support the more egregious hands. He didn't try to bluff her, like we see him do often when they have him beat but not by this much, and he was only going to be drawing to a chopped pot in this case. His river play was literally perfect, but he can never recall his thought process when watching hands back in an interview. He always attributes huge bluffs or hero calls to drinking more wine that night. The only time he ever lost on the river was when he bluffed big when the opponent had a weak hand that could only beat a bluff, and they hero called him. So he's displaying skill and intuition that he didn't have before, and when confronted, he made no attempt to defend himself by playing without the hat or the phone back on the table, which most innocent people would have done to prove that they were that good. He fled from the public eye like caught cheaters do.

When asked about his thought process during said hands, he never has any recollection of what he was thinking at the time, and just attributes it to drinking more wine that night.

If his opponent was strong he would fold his cards when normal players would keep playing. There are at least two statistical outliers that would only happen during these live streamed games. The first was that he would only raise or fold on the river. The second is that he only ever lost hands in the live streamed games when he tried to bluff his opponents off of weak hands but they somehow managed to call.

Look up a video going over his suspicious hands. Many pros have gone over it and all said the same thing. Veronica, Jeff boski, doug polk, Joe Ingram, and a few others all have covered his historic run on those live streams. The thing people need to remember is that poker has variance. I could play the best player in the world, and, sure, they’d probably take my lunch money, but theoretically, I could get stronger hands that make it easier to play against him. But the thing with poker, there’s a lot of decision making. People make wrong decisions all the time. The weird thing with Mike postle is that he NEVER made an incorrect play. Even if he had KQ and someone had AK and they both flopped a pair of kings, Mike would find a way to fold his hand (even though his hand would win on many runouts) and lose as little money possible. It’s not so much the hands he won, but the hands he folded that made him look very suspicious. The only time he would play a hand where someone would have a better hand than him was if someone else ALSO had that same hand, making it more likely that Mike would catch a card he needed, rather than the 2 players who have him crushed (in reference to the 54o hand, which I think is what really pushed Veronica into investigating this) props to Veronica by the way, she did the whole community a huge favor.

@@kristianstenerson2608 I personally think it was them having terrible security and not admitting that they were being hacked in real time. It would be very easy back when this was happening to go to local events and book a room next to the broadcast room or find a place where scanning equipment might find stray RF signals or an insecure port/bad password on the router/etc. All you need is one success at a second-rate casino and then you're in. And they are 99% of the time no wiser, as using a passive scanner won't be detected. It literally could be as simple as them using a wifi router somewhere in the chain and the password being brute-forced in a few minutes. Or something similar with a bluetooth mic/headset. As for myself, I used to do IT work and part of that was systems hardening. The number of ways people would or could hack into a data stream without proper security in place would boggle most normal people's minds ( and why using public wifi is a no-no - use your data plan instead, trust me ). Open ports or jacks, bad passwords, not hiding wifi and bluetooth AP names, firewall not set up correctly (or using a known insecure device/brand), and on and on.. In addition to social engineering or covertly placing usb devices and so on. All it takes is someone pluging into or successfully scanning your network with the right device and you are in real trouble.

People cheat in No Limit Texas Hold 'Em because it is the most luck bucket, stupid version of a card game there is and it was created for morons that cant remember anything more than the two cards in front of them. I have been gambling for over 50 years, have two WSOP cashes, one a 3rd place finish, and speak from experience. These fake high roller games are recorded in an ongoing attempt to get people back to the tables, like which occurred after the Moneymaker Boom because the bottom dropped out after the 2008 economic crash. Las Vegas alone has lost over 50% of it's poker tables since then.

Where is the caught part? What I heard was he rolled a streak that was improbable but by no means impossible. To me, "caught" means you either have uncovered the actual act and how it was done (with actual evidence other than showing a direction he looked); or you have an admission from the person who did it. The bit of evidence available suggests cheating, but he was not "caught" doing it. If everyone thought he was cheating and refused to play with him, that would explain the disappearance from the scene.
@rickp468 ай бұрын
Its not a streak, its an irregular pattern based on math. The pattern of play suggest an impossible increase in the amount of times the player makes a correct call, even in situations where the right call seems very wrong without knowledge of the entire tables hands. Its just not easy to translate that on a court room.

@@rickp46 i did not hear impossible. I heard “improbable”. Those are two very different things. One is absolute where the other has a greater than 0 percent chance of occurring even at random. Again, not suggesting he did not cheat. I would just never say I caught someone cheating absent either a confession or catching the actual mode of cheating. I would say that based on a preponderance of evidence, I believe someone cheated. Semantics, but words are important.
