Freddy Deeb & "new" UB management involved in superuser scandal?

Some new poster on 2+2 named "brainwashdodo" posted some ridiculously incriminating evidence that Freddy Deeb was intimately involved in the UB superuser scandal, with Deeb making multiple large transfers to and from known superuser accounts.  This brainwashdodo guy looks like he actually works/worked for UB at some point, as he has posted very specific deposit/withdrawal/transfer information that looks totally legit.

wade through all the annie duke shit that is on the first several pages in this thread to get to the juicy stuff:

the juicy stuff starts on page 8

I thought this at first too but it appears nothing is concrete at this point. Hopefully this employee is able to stay in contact with us and divulge more info.

From the user "apefish" on 2p2 : " The one real "known" connection to -Fred- based on what is in this thread is Russ Hamilton since he reimburses -Fred- whenever -Fred- hands out money, including to Freddy Deeb, and Shaqtack (superuser).

NLL made an assumption -Fred- must be Freddy Deeb and people appear to have started running with it. I think that's a mistake at this point.


But for Cliff notes I would say:

-UB "employee" posts last week saying a new press release is due out and that he's going to give us some juicy info after said press release has gone public.

-Press release finally comes out stating they have found more super user names. (This in itself is incriminating)

-Employee posts screen shots from what appears to be a legit UB administration page with withdraw/deposit/personal information.

-Employee posts info showing Freddie Deeb has multiple accounts as well as transfer history showing at least one pro (Russ Hamilton) being directly linked to a known superuser account "Shaqtack"

-kid55 is freddy deebs sn on UB. He was born in 1955 and uses 55 in his other user names and email as well. A lot of superuser names end in 55.

*Probably more info but this is what I've gathered from skimming over the threads tonight.

 someone else's cliffsnotes from 2+2:

"Basically a bunch of confirmed superusers are being shown to have transfers in very large amounts of $ to freddy deeb. Several of the superuser names had '55' in them, deebs screename also had '55' in it ("kid55") and his email as well. Deebs account was closed the day after one of the superuser acccounts, shaqatack, was closed after transfering him a large amount of money. Missing some info but thats right for the most part"


coincidentally (?) Freddy Deeb was born in 1955 too.

wow.


read the lot and looked at the screenshots. seems slightly suspicious

don't know why they're involving hellmuth later in the postings though he clearly has nothing to do with it.

This stuff is ridiculous.  True or not, all of what brainwashedodo posted would be REALLY hard to fabricate, and there would not be much point to it. 

Either way, I was as close to redepositing there as ever with the recent signings of Bax, Rizen, and PokerPro. 

No more.  Fuck that site.

There is no reason to ever play on UB or AP ever again....EVER - I've been screaming it for months while Annie talks about all the free money in overlays with their great schedule.......i wonder how they'll spin this......obviously Rizen made the right move ending any relationship he had with them - and maybe bax will follow  - I just dont understand why anyone would let such a crooked site use their name to lend credibility such an operation thats been caught stealing millions.

I wish pocket fives or some other site would write a front page article about this so that users less informed could grasp the enormous cheating that UB continues to allow from insiders.

Its sad how shady all of this is. Looks like the guys at 2+2 are doing some great work as usual with the help of this new info from an "insider".

Scary how involved Deeb seems to be in all of this.... Yet UB's investigations dont tell us fuck all about any of this.

Pretty funny in hindsight how offended he was when people accused him of "going south" in that high stakes poker episode.

I wonder if Shaundeeb will change his name now.
