    Summary of Ultimate Bet and Absolute Cheating

    Good Summary of the Cheating scandals at AP and UB

    For those who want a summary of the summary:

    • AP and UB are owned by the same company.
    • Some high stakes players at both sites noticed that a few of their opponents had win rates that were statistically improbable.
    • Analysis of their play suggests (conclusively) that these players could see the other players hole cards.
    • The scandal started at AP and AP stridently denied there was anything wrong until a complete hand history (showing everyone's hole cards) for a tournament was released. It was beyond obvious that the tournament winner could see the hole cards of the other players.
    • AP finally admitted there was a problem.
    • UB continues to deny (or not comment) that anything wrong happened.
    • The player accounts for the suspect UB cheaters was made public, and those accounts have all been closed.
    • Those accounts had accrued several million dollars in (stolen) winnings prior to being closed.
