This river overshove is the dumbest play I've seen so far. No logic can justify it. Unless he knew the guy had AK ofc.
It's ironic that Stones and the tournament director now say they are doing an investigation just a day after making two Twitter comments saying that the allegations were fabricated. I seriously question their management/ownership and I think it's more than likely that at least one person in that group was complicit.
Based on all the evidence and the his results shown in that spreadsheet I'm 99+% convinced he was cheating. The only thing missing is direct evidence.
Its a standard we will try to sweep this under the rug and when it won't go away with more allegations popping up by people with a larger social media following they have no choice but to look into it further.
Shutting down streaming operations to buy more time as to how to handle this matter was bound to happen. I'm sure internally most agree something isn't right but they don't want to look like fools in the matter.
This is a big scandal that can put them in serious jeopardy of serious fines and potentially (but not likely) losing their license.
Mike should get out of dodge now if he's smart because with outside people investigating this it's only a matter of time before they nail him.

Looks like they no longer trust their BS "investigation" from earlier.
The fact that they continued live streaming for a few days while this blew up (and even had Mike's brother on the stream) was a HUGE public relations misstep.
Finally they realize that their broadcast will just be full of trolls in the chat room (plus heavily attacked on social media), and that any marketing gain they get out of these streams will be more than negated by the bashing and the outrage.
It's also likely that their initial "investigation" simply involved a quick cursory look at their equipment and setup, and wasn't particularly aggressive, nor did it focus on Mike's hands. It probably just involved looking to see if they could figure out how he did it, and since they couldn't, they declared the stream was secure.
Unbelievable that they thought this would fool the poker community and shut the matter down.
Now they realize they're fucked unless they come up with real answers.
The big question: Was any of the Stones staff in on it?
Here's a bigger version of the "hat stuffing" pic. Very suspicious.
I wonder what could be in there. Maybe some kind of soft pulse only he can feel/hear?
That was their prior statement about the matter.Earlier this year an accusation was made that a player was cheating in our game
We conducted a full investigation & found no evidence that any cheating had occurred
Stones Live stream remains a secure poker streaming platform
The recent allegations are completely fabricated
So they accused Veronica of "fabricating" the allegations, basically saying that she's a liar.
They also internally pressured her not to come forward with this stuff, and dismissed her concerns.
Now suddenly they're doing a "more thorough investigation".
Uh huh. When is it time to apologize to Veronica?
Sessions #24-29 were said to occur while Justin Kuraitis was away working at the WSOP.
Hmmmm....
As I expected, Mac Verstandig is all over this one.

I hope Stones gets crushed over this. Their initial responses were arrogant to the point of taunting the community.
Imagine not only calling the allegations "fabricated", but also then featuring the brother of the accused on the next stream, as a basic FU to the accusers.
Fuck them.

I've read the entire thread over a 4 re: Stones Streaming
no smoking gun yet, but strong statistical & analytical evidence that cheating going on involving Postle & booth commentator Jason K--enough to justify banning them imho.
maybe I read to many detective novels, but I suspect that more than those two may be involved; indeed, possibly someone in the broadcast or running of the poker venue.
Why I say that? Well, the smart play is to manage/hold down the wins to allow the cheating to go on for quite a while and get away with it forever--but Postle has been winning outrageous, particularly ramping up in late 2018 and into 2019. Indeed, several posters in the 4 thread say Postle is either greedy or arrogant by running so good, thus jeopardizing himself to discovery.
So why would the perps risk discovery like that? What if he/they had to make payments to someone to buy silence? That might explain why the ramping up, and the continuing to play on when rumors/accusations started a couple of months ago. Probably not just a percentage, but a minimum amount per month, thus forcing Postle to target an amount to make it worthwhile to everyone involved, and increase the amount taken from the game starting in late 2018.
