Ha, that is great, and it might work legally, especially if caricature drawings of them are done instead of pictures.Originally Posted by peter mcneil
hilarious idea. Could details of whatever their scam was also be outlined in a funny way on the back? Obviously something like this would be great advertising for the site.
Druff, that's all well and good (awesome explanation, by the way!), but what ACTUAL EVIDENCE can you produce relating to your allegations against Mark Seif -- I mean, besides your or reggiman's sworn affidavit (in which case it's a he-said-she-said mess)?
I'm not trying to dissuade you from doing these cards, but I just want to make sure you are giving serious thought to the issues... and will have evidence (confessions, convictions, etc.) to back up each and every one of your claims.
Unlimited potential for lulz here. Good fuckin call!

This is basically what I'm saying. Not that he can't do it, but in my honest opinion, if he's going to jump to Mark Seif cheated he shouldn't; it's going to be a problem. Much easier to say (just writing this on the fly):
Mark Seif was a former AP spokesman, and possibly a part-owner of the site, who assured the poker community there was no super-user at AP. Seif was later proven wrong, and allegations that he himself may have super-used have come to light.
I write things about poker at my Poker Blog and elsewhere on the Internets

I agree that this is a problem in actually producing the deck as originally discussed.
I just thought you were doubting my claims about Seif, all legal issues aside.
I like it. One to three pithy sentences for each person. Awesome. I nominate YOU to write the first draft!
Just don't put their actual names on there and use a "parody" disclaimer.
What's a parody disclaimer? Either it's a parody (and protected as Fair Use from copyright infringement claims) or it's not.
Maybe you're talking about some other country than the U.S., I dunno.....
Something like this to denote that the material is of a satirical or parody nature. This is the same legal premise that Larry Flynt has used to beat slander and libel lawsuits for decades.What's a parody disclaimer?

This website is intended purely for entertainment and educational purposes only. All of the material on this site is intended for purposes of SATIRE, PARODY, and HUMOR.

Remember, though, just because something may appear to be fair use, and fit every definition of fair use, doesn't not mean you won't get sued over it, just means you have a good defense against the charges. Still, unfortunately, does not mean you will win, even if you are correct.What's a parody disclaimer? Either it's a parody (and protected as Fair Use from copyright infringement claims) or it's not.

Of course you are right about that.Remember, though, just because something may appear to be fair use, and fit every definition of fair use, doesn't not mean you won't get sued over it, just means you have a good defense against the charges. Still, unfortunately, does not mean you will win, even if you are correct.
To be clearer, Parody/Fair Use are copyright concepts. Shortbuspoker is talking about something different -- a parody disclaimer as a defense to a defamation lawsuit. I have NO IDEA how effective such disclaimers are or would be.
On the card, or on a separate booklet with the card, you can add a commentary "Alleged Fraud: Mark Seif superused etc etc."
All these frauds will only ever be "allegedly", because there is no jurisdiction where we can go to prosecute these SOBs. The best we can do is name and shame them with creative initiatives like this.

Love the Seif story, Druff - perfect read, IMO. Question: Have you seen him in poker rooms since? Heard of other players giving him shit?
If there was one thing the DOJ could do for me (and it wont happen)......it woudl be to release from 2005-2009 all of the FTP hand histories..and more for than just to see if there were superusers.
Sure, those would say it wouldn't be fair to make em public for the protection of player data. But I want to see, because I gotta say, we've HEARD of auditing of RNGs - but have we ever seen a comprehensive, full and transparent report from ANY poker site which is analyzed by a consultant AND a 3rd party (like here or 2p2)?

i had a domain name of a very famous athlete. i was going to use his image to pitch jerseys and other bs. i was so afraid to do so, i did nothing
Giving this the ol bump to post something just because I find this topic hilarious being created by an ultimate scammer himself aka Jasep.
Haseeb "DOGISHEAD" Qureshi is giving away all his money after retiring from poker which happened after the whole scandal with Jungleman,etc... He wrote a book about poker he's trying to sell for super cheap too but the guy claims he's given all but $10k of his winnings away just in case he needs it for emergencies and has a website about it here:
http://haseebq.com/
I don't trust this guy for a second.
Pretty sure there is some kind of angle with this thing, especially leaving himself just $10k to live on.
This guy is the classic case of a really book-smart guy who lacks the emotional maturity to make it in the world (at least so far).
