Specifically, what are you talking about --- how were you literally robbed.

Its pretty obvious at this point you have always been a lieing, cheating, thief your whole life and it looks like it will never change. I have 0 doubt in my mind you will continue to play on PS one way or another because that's simply the type of person you are.
There isn't a single person in this or any other community that should ever trust you, especially anything poker or money related. I really hope you learn from this and past experiences and finally grow the fk up, but I won't hold my breath. GL with life. -
He paid $49.99 for a final table team jersey and Mr Casino kept the money.

Wait now, are you saying it wasn't your friend's father's hand?
I just wish they could ban these guys not only from online but from live events as well. It makes me sick everytime I see one of these scumbags playing live. GG stars, hope FT follows suit, please ban them both for life. -
he's pretty deep in the 750k on tilt, or at least someone playing that account is, and he's offering to PM players privately to discuss rather than speaking openly, but the rail is growing...

Come on... I'm sure Jason is a great guy and may have had a very small role in this whole thing (although imo, without knowing Jason very well, I believe he is a lot guiltier than it seems like everyone else believes he is), but you don't really believe that Craig was softplaying his brother and his brother had no clue that he was and was not at all returning the favor.

Look alike? Yes. Same person? No.
And about the hand history, there is absolutely no proof or evidence whatsoever in that hand of Jason colluding or softplaying. I play QQ the exact 100% same way that Jason did in that hand without knowing anything about the villain.
While I strongly believe Jason knew he was playing against his brother, and probably adjusted his play accordingly, this is 100% speculation and is by all of you as there is no evidence to support your assumptions. -
I love you but just read what I wrote. I'm just pointing out the fact that there is no concrete evidence.

Like my friend would say when he doesnt really care about shit ...Sorry 2 Hear That

gopherhoky you are one serious idiot if you think that association is the same as committing a crime. For one you have control over your own actions. If one of your friends or relatives makes a bad decision there often is nothing you can do about it. And even if you could do something to prevent it it is not your job to police the actions if your associates. All you should be responsible for is yourself.
-
and noone has ever gone to jail for being an accessory after the fact...Personally Im glad stars is making the lives of cheaters as miserable as possible..hopefully it might make someone think twice about multiaccounting if they know their closest family and friends will go down with them. Sure it sucks if some people will be punished for nothing but it sucks even more for all the people being cheated.
-
fwiw my name isnt dick or has never been involved with any sort of cheating so please keep it out you all's mouth ty, as to i have no clue wtf those guys are trying to imply about me , but if they have something to say id like it to be said to be not publicly make it like im doing shady shit. i have worked hard to get where i am, have never been accussed of any sort of cheating. i self banned my accounts, will have ftp back in 3 days and stars in december. i have life chat bann on stars and never even been warned on ftp , i am going to work in my best power to become a better person and abetter player over the next few years, would be nice if i could respond to some of you all. i banned myself for 6 months, who knows maybee theyll show sympathy for once in there lives.

i banned my accounts cause to be honest i may have took a week off for last 4 years i need a break. i dont enjoy playing i get way to stressed and im not in position where i need to play poker. 1 day of poker is a months worth of bills if not more. in these 6 months i am trying to learn to be a better person in same time as just chilling. i banned my accounts when i was still number 1 on here, plb n propoll both, i dont need to use other names to get a edge and yes you all piss me off alot but i still dont mind ya. no way possible imo you all would ever pay me off like you do if i was on another name. thanks ill be back soon try keep my name out of the unetiquite people in the poker community thanks.
chad -
That dudes like a hero to me! M8kingmoves, and ajk, both real players, who dont need to cheat to win....
-
OK you win...after i saw the stars responce where they stated there was no collusion or softplaying on that table i do agree that jason should not be banned for life.(maybe for 3 months or so)You just have to understand that without prove it was hard not to believe he didnt.See my post in FREE JASON page 14.

FWIW, I remember (but unfortunately don't have the HHs) AT LEAST two separate occasions during the past couple months when I played key hands at late stages of tournaments with PapaHarkin where I made big laydowns that I NEVER would have made vs. MrCasino. I'm sure I'm not the only one who had these experiences. This is such a sickening feeling, as this is my first experience of 100% KNOWING that I've been cheated out of equity by a MAer, although I'm sure it has happened to me before without my knowledge.

Honestly it boggles the mind to think that these guys whose talent is undeniable resort to this kind of thing time and fucking time again.
As an outsider looking in, it seems like these guys (cheaters) maintin the respect of their peers so they don't really give a shit if they get caught anymore - "Oh well, I can't play online, I'll just hop on the live tourney train and glad hand it with all the 'real' pros and I can always just make another account or stake someone I've trained to do it for me" .
No one, not one ranked player that I've read a response from on these kinds of threads even hints at the fact that they might shun one of these fuckers if they met them at a live event. Not one! All the big guys do is tell those that claim they'd "knock that cheater out" at a live tourney that they're full of it and wouldn't risk their 10K buy in on some self satisfying garbage like that but they never say flat out that if they saw Sorel Mizzi or JJ at a tournament that they'd look them in the face and say "not cool, man...not fucking cool". -
see, this is where you fail b/c you would be an accomplice after the fact.
but nice try, ty for playing. -
sounds good chad, gl man.
-
You are right it's definitely not concrete, but I bet if stars reviews the whole FT they will find a pretty strong case. Either way, I feel bad for Jason that his brother was such a boneheaded cheater that he cost him his account and livelihood etc. My only point was that it just seems really unlikely that Jason is completely innocent just because it is his flesh and blood that is the one cheating.

MrsEspn was on FTP late last night (midnight sunday) in the FTP $200 HORSE tournament. There were railers accusing him of cheating but he did not say a thing. Didn't make it ti the cash either (unlike me: 3rd place mini-brag).
