I am posting my comments to Wil's recent statement here as I doubt it will make it past post review at the Rx:

No argument here from me. All shops will want to investigate any big casin win.

2. While checking out Cory1111's method of play they discovered the never seen before rate of 17.4 hands per minute played over an extended period of time. This is incorrect. Cory played at a rate of 11.1 hands per minute according to the play logs

This led them to believe that a bot may have been used instead of a live person which is against clearly posted Ez st. rules. Hence the investigation that uncovered all of the information regarding Cory1111's history of defrauding books extensively not to mention a similar occurrence on the same software at another book. See my answer above. 11.1 hands per minute is actually fairly slow for VP play, even for a novice.

3. In an effort to allow him to clear his name after all things were considered Ez St offered to pay him in full if he accepted an Rx.com guarantee that they would hold funds in escrow for an all expenses trip to Costa Rica to A. Take a polygraph and B. Duplicate for several hours, maybe a few as three if he insisted of his 17.4 hands per minute play on the identical game in the offices of the software company that designed the game also located in Costa Rica, if he passed both he would have been paid in full. I offered to put this all in some sort of legal document Again, you keep repeating 17.4 hands per minute when in actuality it was 11.1. Asking a winning player to fly to CR and/or take a polygraph is ridiculous.

Lets discuss this polygraph - this was never intended to be a police like polygraph or something a DA would ask a suspect to take. There was never going to be any secondary consequences if his answers indicated he was not being honest.Polygraphs, depending on the qestions asked can be as much as 30% inaccurate according to experts. Why would anyone agree to take one?

The only consequence if he flunked the polygraph based on a neutral polygraph experts interpretation of the results was he would not be paid. Had he passed it then demonstrated the play described above he would have been played in full plus his expenses for the trip once receipts for airline and hotel rooms were sent to The Rx after he was back in the US along with $100 a day per diem to allow him to eat without spending his own funds. He would be paid his expenses pass or flunk with again a legal document made a available should he want it. Legal as far as the court of public opinion goes, I am not familiar with how he could use them in a US court bit they could hold some weight in a Costa Rican court. There is no doubt in my mind if he made the trip that both the Rx and especially Ez St would live up to their agreement. I had the owner of Ez st's word on that, not just the GM's. There may be no doubt in your mind that EasyStreet would live up to what they say, but there is reason for many of us to believe otherwise.

The questioning would be restricted to just one area other than a few routine questions such as are you Cory1111, were you born on such and such a date and maybe are your eyes brown to establish a baseline.

Baseline established all anyone was interested in was "did you use a bot or any other type of software designed to play the XYZ video poker game at the Ez St.casino?

That was it, a legal document to that effect could have been drawn up with copies furnished to any third part Cory1111 designated. Results would be furnished to Cory1111, anyone he cared to designate to receive a copy such as SBR, Ez St management and The Rx.com. That would be it. All this business of the polygraph incriminating him of anything else is not true. EasyStreet has told mistruths throughout this dispute so there is no reason for anyone to believe this wasn't a setup. Why would anyone have to prove their innocence?

Apparently that will not be happening, so rather than do what I could do seeing how I am fired from the case by Cory1111. I am going to go on a fact finding mission to Ez st this week during which I will compile data on everything Cory1111 did during his time playing at Ez St. I believe I understand his motive now for playing there but I will post that after my visit if plausible. Honestly Wil, you have already proven to not grasp the numbers that have been talked about in this thread so you surely aren't qualified to "compile" data or even make an inference based on that data. The fact that you keep saying over and over that the odds of hitting 3 royals in 8865 hands is 125,000 to 1 when in reality it is about 1 in 700.

I know that his past history is not reason enough to not to pay him as does Ez st. but it is reason enough to cloud the issue and to cast some doubt on the veracity of his claims. Clouding the issue sure does seem like what you are doing in this thread. EasyStreet has to prove bot use, and they clearly did not.

He lied to me the first time he contacted me. When asked how he hit his third Royal he claimed he was dealt it, the truth is he drew three cards to it..I could go on but I have to believe anyone with an open mind can see my point. You simply cannot believe everything he says.

In a very real sense I am his last hope to get paid. He will not help himself, SBR from what I can gather almost immediately took his side in the case but I will add that their methods are none of my concern or business. You are not his only hope. Easystreet will have to decide to pay this guy or not, but if they do not their Sportsbook name will be mud. Since they rely heavily on forums for business then they will become extinct if they choose to not pay their winners. Forum posters will never forget what happened here.

Oddly I can by now tell by just looking at the poster name of the last poster in this thread, the name of that poster is displayed outside the thread as to what to expect when I open it and read the post.

I will be honest there are several posters involved in this thread that I do respect the opinions of and several that I do not. You probably know who you are but the bottom line is The Rx allowed this thread to stand and be discussed something that we often get accused of not allowing. While commending yourself for letting this thread stand, you also must remember that several posters including myself have been banned or PR'ed. So even thought the thread is still here there were key points made that wer not allowed to stand as that was the way the thread was moderated.

I said in the very beginning I was not going to allow non posters with obvious agendas to come out of the woodwork and hijack the thread but any veteran Rxer who posts on a regular basis has been able to add his input without being censored. Several ghosts have come from outside The Rx do try and discredit everyone except Cory1111. They are no longer around. I am a longtime forum poster here with over 11,000 posts and I have been censored.

Today may be the day I visit Ez St but more likely it will be Tuesday or Wednesday. Don't expect another day of Q and A. You have my plans outlined briefly. My report will be honest and will reflect what I find out by examining a variety of playing histories among other matters. Again, you are not qualified to do this investigative work. You clearly do not grasp the numbers which are key to the arguments here.

Thanks, wilheim
