[Dan Druff]

*** NOTE THE SPECIAL NIGHT -- ONE DAY EARLY ***

Brandon will not be available this week! SrslySirius is co-hosting in his place.

You can listen by going to our Radio tab above, or clicking here: http://pokerfraudalert.com/forum/radio.php

Call in number: (775) FRAUD-55 or (775) 372-8355. Make sure to show your caller ID, or the phone system will not let you through (you will probably get a busy signal)! You can also call our mountaintop number (an old '70s phone sitting on top of Mt. Charleston) at (702) 430-1808.

You can follow along and interact with us in our live chat room, by clicking the Chat tab near the top of the screen. You need to be logged in and have flash capability on your computer to see the chat.

We have a $50 freeroll this week.

There is no tournament password. Go register now! There is no late registration (software doesn't have that option) so register early!



*** IMPORTANT ***

To qualify for the freeroll, you need to have registered on PokerFraudAlert by May 21, 2012.

If you are a lurker and still want to play, you must PM me or e-mail me beforehand and explain how long you've been listening/lurking, and tell me some of your favorite anecdotes from the forum (either here or DD) or the radio show. If you fail to do this before the tournament, or if you send me some generic bullshit like, "I think the show is funny. I like the show", you will NOT qualify for the freeroll, and your prize will be given to the next qualifying finisher. If you were an old-school regular user from NWP/DD who I remember, you will automatically qualify even if you weren't registered by May 21st.

You will also automatically qualify if I remember you from NWP/DD, provided you are not banned from this site.

I am doing this in order to prevent freeroll-hunting leeches from using our site for our freeroll money and then disappearing.


Agenda for tonight:

- Major problems at Lock Poker -- software failures, cashout issues, poor customer service

- Should Lock pros like Mizrachi be blamed for staying silent on the issues there?

- Poorly run new tournament at Pokerstars PCA cheats players out of around $40k

- Anthony Scocozzo, apparent victim of user "Yebsite", shows up on Reddit and claims identity theft

- GTECH caught rigging online casino games at major online casinos (including those associated with poker rooms)

- Attempted prank call to a well known poker pro over a real issue

- Possible Ken Scalir call

- Please suggest other good topics if you don't see them here!

- We take your phone calls at (775) FRAUD-55 or (775) 372-8355

Also, no guarantees about the quality of the show tonight.

I am in a hotel in a secret location, and not sure if the internet here is good enough to reliably do the show.

I'm going to make my best attempt at it, though.

Why don't you talk about the current Nicholas Albino situation, or will you continue to be a hypocrite and not speak about this due to some kind of sick liking you have for this individual?

It is on the agenda. Read again.

Also, look at the Yebsite thread and you'll see I just made a long post about it.

I am sorry Druff just finished reading it. Please accept my apologies on jumping the gun.

Get plol on the air.

Talk about chuck rosseell

Talk about how you already have given up your diet

[Rollo Tomasi]

Yebsite for guest host or if Yebbie is not available TMMLK or maybe Brandon Drexel Gerson
is he somewhere that SYKPE doesn't work

[OSA]

I have a GREAT idea for a prank call today.

I was surprised when Druff explain his diet plan last week on radio. It is almost certain to fail, and if doesnt, your body is going to be pissed off and you will be cranky a lot of the time. I have been slipping myself lately. I am still around 185 but because of Vegas trips been eating pretty unhealthy. It sounds as if maybe hitting up 408mike for a plan might be a good way to go. Druff, maybe you should do the same? China explained what he did to lose 80 pounds and the diet he was on made sense, and even more important, seemed doable.

Daniel Negreanu's 2012 goals:

So each year I like to set some goals and I post it in a written blog. Lets take a look at last years goals and how I did, and then set some new goals for 2013.

1. Cash for a million dollars in tournaments- mission accomplished, cashed for 1.7 million in live tournaments and a few hundred thousand more playing on PokerStars.

10. No partying the night before any big event- Oops! I finished 6th in the $100k Euro Super High Roller in Monte Carlo, and that was a bit of a miracle. I was out with Ivey the night before drinking tequila and barely made it to the tournament before late registration closed.

[SrslySirius]

I can sit in for an hour or two if wanted.

I haven't given up the diet.

I have already lost some weight, but I haven't posted about it because it's meaningless since it is probably temporary weight.

Since I am traveling (and have been for the past few days), it is a bit harder to keep to the diet, but I have done a pretty good job so far.

This will probably be a shorter show tonight (you never know, though), but you're welcome to guest host if you're around.

New Jersey game regulators to sign of on Pokerstars purchasing casino in Atlantic City...... (Reference Pokerati.com)

On Tuesday, Isle of Man-based The Rational Group, which owns PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker, filed papers with the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement, seeking approval to purchase the Atlantic Club Casino Hotel from Resorts International Holdings.

There is now a 90-day period in which the Division of Gaming Enforcement will conduct an investigation and then report its findings to the New Jersey Casino Control Commission. The casino commission will then have 30 days to hold hearings and ultimately make a determination on suitability.

Nice catch here, love SrslySirius on the radio. First time in awhile I can listen live!
