    The accusations that Bryn could see computer screens could explain how GG has "irrefutable evidence" (as Bonomo put it) that Schindler and Ali were cheating while playing. Is GG recording our computer screens when we play?

    Bryn Kenney cheating scandal

    Back when I played MTTs (over ten years ago) it was clear a lot of the top stables like JohnnyBax were ghosting and slow playing eachother. This takes it to the next level and involves the most successful tourney player of all time.

    Polk on top of this as usual

    Also pretty much concerns my suspicion that many top players are using real time assisted software and the sites have no way to properly catch this.

    I always felt bots would dominate poker like they took over chess. I guess they have just that people are hiding it so well.

    GG's shady "affiliate program" isn't getting enough attention here, but maybe this will spawn enough of an interest in the situation to where that will be discussed more.

    I've known about it for a long time, and in fact heard years ago that Bryn had some kind of major influence on the site because of being a major affiliate. It seems that GG's affiliate program is different than that of other poker sites, and it more involves affiliates who act as handlers for their players, rather than just referrers. I'm actually quite interested in this aspect of the story.

    Also, apparently this Martin Zamani guy has his own bad history dating back 9 years, so that's complicating matters. However, he is starting to release bits of proof on his Twitter, so he's probably mostly telling the truth. However, given Zamani's shady history, I'm guessing he was a very willing pahticipant in this scheme, and only is coming forward because he's pissed at Bryn about something. But he's likely being mostly truthful, if I had to guess.

    Here are Patrick Leonard's thoughts on RTA and their danger to the typical online poker player:

    https://twitter.com/padspoker/status/1517549689389961220

    https://twitter.com/padspoker/status/1517549692145573888

    https://twitter.com/padspoker/status/1517549694871818246



    I mostly agree with him. The typical mid-stakes pro doesn't have to worry as much about RTA users.

    HOWEVER... middle and lower stakes are full of bots and colluders on certain sites, whereas these bots don't tend to play in high stakes games. Bots and RTA are very similar, though bots are worse, because RTA still allows for human error, and many RTA players only consult it in "tough spots", meaning they don't play as optimally as bots. Also, bots are known to collude with each other and share hole cards, and can do so more efficiently than humans.

    Additionally, ghosting in tournaments, while not as widespread as people think, is still somewhat of a problem. That also affects the low and middle stakes player online.

    I've known Bryn longer than anyone. None of these things come as a surprise as to who he was when he was younger. However I thought with his success he had turned a corner and put all of that behind him, I guess not

    GG poker is extremely shady.
    I knew that their business practices couldn’t stay under the radar much longer.

    Trash all around.

    Who else remember DNegs trying to recruit all the struggling poker players to Choice Center??

    Lots of people with a history of predatory behavior in the poker community working with GG.
