People who created and found software programs to see everyone's cards playing online poker.  Took over 20 million dollars from people and other players.  Also people working for the company used administrative names where they could see all the hands as they were played to make millions.

Nothing will be done to recover the people's money because online poker is ILLEGAL. 

Anyhow it is all very interesting...

Used to play online poker but only $20 and $50 deposits... Now I only bet sports because I wondered about the legitimacy of it.  Makes you wonder if the covers free roll is rigged

Yeah, just watched it. I remember hearing of this story before but I didn't know the magnitude of it. One guy lost $250,000 to a single cheater and all together over $20 mil in cheating.    I'd be so pissed if I was that one guy who got cheated from so much money.

personally if i lost $250,000 to a cheat and had a name, and a whereabouts of this person (like they showed on 60 minutes) well you use your imagination. As far as people saying thats what you get for playing online poker, BULLSHIT, a cheat deserves to be punished one way or the other.

I used to play poker at an underground place and the dealer was a magician also. Shit was pretty crazy.
