    Is that enough to get it dismissed?
    Mason made Postle the recipient of the tennis scholarship this year to add you to the suit, so probably not.

    I didn’t listen to radio. Was there any information about how he ended up with a prestigious firm taking the case? I imagine that makes fighting it off a much more expensive proposition. You have to take it serious despite it being ridiculous. Who did druff go with? I’ll listen later, but was curious. Sucks to be attached to this garbage.

    Never heard of Mike Postle before this.

    Who from now on should be referred to as Mike "Piece of Shit" Postle. He apparently has about $500K in winnings lifetime. His biggest win, a $1500 buy-in back in 2007 for $118K.

    According to many top poker pros and a few amateurs, it is very obvious that he was cheating.

    Here's an article in last months wired...

    The Cheating Scandal That Ripped the Poker World Apart

    Mike Postle was on an epic winning streak at a California casino. Veronica Brill thought he had to be playing dirty. Let the chips fall where they may.

    The Cheating Scandal That Ripped the Poker World Apart

    https://www.wired.com/story/stones-p...ating-scandal/
    From the Wired article, with emphasis added to the last name of Veronica’s co-commentator on the show in which she first alluded to her suspicion that Postle was cheating.

    Justin Kelly, one of the livestream's two commentators, gushed over the genius of Postle's eccentric play. “This is what I'm talking about people!” he exclaimed from his broadcast booth across the room. “Postle takes the weirdest lines and gets people to lay down huge hands all the time. But when he has top pair and a straight draw, he is able to just lay down against the nuts. Postle is just like a freak! He's just a freak of nature.”

    Kelly's co-commentator, 42-year-old Veronica Brill, did not share his sense of awe. She had been observing Postle up close for a while, both as an opponent at the table and a broadcaster, and she'd come to believe there was a nefarious reason for his success. For months she'd resisted mentioning her suspicions on the livestream, hoping that Stones would handle the matter behind the scenes. But the fold against Cordeiro struck her as so fishy that she could no longer keep quiet. Brill leaned back, gently shook her head, and took a half-step toward calling out God.

    “It doesn't make sense,” she said, her soft monotone tinged with mockery. “It's like he knows. It doesn't make sense. It's weird.” Sounding caught off guard by his cohost's skeptical remarks, Kelly continued effusively—“Absolute insanity, guys!”—before managing to change the subject.
    Do you think Wired intentionally misidentify Justin Kuraitis as “Justin Kelly” to avoid getting sued by Kuraitis, or perhaps Stones Casino? Or that it was just a bonehead reporting error? The latter though seems super unlikely given the significant difference of those names.

    Justin Kelly is a different person. The Wired reporter spent 9 months researching the story; not likely to make basic error like that.

    Found the episode on Veronica’s channel. It was Justin Kelly.



    Wow! I didn’t realize that!

    Looks like Kelly knew Postle was cheating and helped cover for his cheating ways when he was subbing for Kuraitis doing the commentary.

    P.S. Sorry for relitigating this. I had forgotten that there was another “Justin” involved in this matter this way.

    How much money did Mike Postle make from these streamed cash games?

    How much did he pay the guy feeding him live information about everybody's cards? 20%?

    They claim crime doesn't pay but it does.

    Hey Druff,

    I believe I was one of the first (or the 1st) people ever sued on the internet for libel (1998 or 1999)...

    No lawyer or judge had a clue what to do because it was all so new...

    Ask me anything!!!

    Here’s the case: Postle will not be able to prove “actual malice”, his damages are extremely speculative, and Druff’s culpability vis a vis the other defendants (remember, this is a 7th tier poker website) is minimal. On the other hand, proving Postle is harassing Druff, as opposed to being a legitimate defendant, because Druff did publish the allegedly defamatory statements, is problematic as well. Like I said, he’s going to eat those legal fees.

    I assume the defense will be coordinated until it is time to throw some under the bus.

    Postle's play is completely irrelevant to the suit.

    Interestingly, the players think statistics are going to save them.

    The joke is - Lies, damn lies, and statistics.

    Some won and some lost. If they thought there was cheating they should have stopped playing before the game was terminated.

    Many suggested that the plaintiffs STFU during the original suit, to no avail.

    Let's hope they learned their lesson.

    From the article Belly Buster posted:

    The crux of Postle’s lawsuit is that his accusers were aware they were lying when they called him a cheater on Twitter, YouTube, or other media outlets. “Not only did defendants, and each of them, have no reasonable basis to believe these statements,” the complaint says, “but they also had no belief in the truth of these statements, and in fact knew the statements to be false.”
    Wait, does his lawsuit actually say this? So Postle is saying, for example, Todd really believed that Postle DID NOT cheat but claimed Postle cheated anyways...because reasons? Really? That's just objectively untrue. The defendants all believe Postle cheated.

    How can Postle possibly win this case?
