So I went and found a few articles that explained in detail the circumstances of how Full Tilt went down and you're right. Holy shit. He basically kept 60 million while giving the government over 3 million (what was left in his Full Tilt account) and said that he wouldn't be involved in internet gambling ever again. Wow.
Then he goes to the WSOP and plays with the people he stole from? I just don't understand. WTF is he trying to do? The $200K he's won so far this year should be in the poker community's pockets not his. Holy shit!
Maybe BDB will inject his opinion since he was probably affected in some way.
from pokerlistings report on today's $10,000 NLHE 6-max championship:
"At one point, Ferguson noticed that Nick Petrangelo had gotten a few extra chips due to a dealer error.
Ferguson repeatedly talked to the floor, asked for a supervisor and asked them to go over the security footage.
Ferguson spent one break talking to tournament staff and kept the issue going when play started back up.
The supervisor told Ferguson that they were aware of the mistake, but the hand had passed and there was nothing they could do.
Ferguson had been wronged and he wanted it to be fixed."

I'd rather not. It will just get me angry again. He's a scumbag. But most of the guys you see on tv are. They ran good before the bubble burst and made nice little names for themselves and big sponsorship deals. What those guys at Tilt did crossed every line of decency and human morals. I hope they rot. I know a bunch of these guys and played with them before online poker. Trust me when I say most of them are complete scum.
The balls on this dude, man oh man what a set of balls on this guy:scared
I read about what this dude did, the balls on this guy to show up at WSOP, wowzers:scared
The worst part........he doesn't seem remorseful at all, it is like he's proud of himself for getting away with it.
I remember reading Jesus doesn't even tip. Talked to a dealer several years ago who told me he would walk over Sammy Farha if he was dead.
wrong forum ... 3 day ban :SIB
FUCK that guy and Lederer and maybe a couple others ... some of the others I dont think were on the inside take like them ... I know a couple of the paid pros that used to play there and they knew nothing of what the main guys were doing
those fuckers killed good poker sites for Americans
The title of the thread reads "piece of shit"....thus Serena Williams names belongs in it. She is a terrible human being.
