Of course Guy was getting cheated. I don't understand the mocking of his comments here but especially on 2+2.Originally Posted by Steve-O
I don't think Guy was able to articulate what happened the way he wanted to, or perhaps he doesn't fully understand what they were allegedly doing.
Pokerfuse described Guy's accusation as "instantly reloading their accounts as they squeezed him with frequent bets/raises from all sides of the virtual table(s)." but a more likely reason they were squeezing him was the players were equity chopping.

Start at about 1:21 for Matusow comments on Guy and FTP (you'll also get Negreanu talking about Men the Master if you go back a few more minutes)

You can say none of the lower tier "red pros" did anything wrong in the fall of FTP but nobody can tell me these people are ethical. Even a guy like Daniel Negreanu, who I believe to have more ethics than the norm, has said & done some shit that I absolutely vehemently disagree with & have had back & forths with him on his forum back in the day.
Is it really so hard to believe after seeing the lengths that these degenerates will go to keep themselves in action, like, in the "red pros" case, willfully turning a blind eye to what's happening in the company, that they would resort to some morally/ethically questionable tactics to win money from a known fish? Not one of these pros getting distributions has offered to return any of that money(okay, I heard Ferguson did but I'm not sure that's been 100% confirmed) even after finding out that it was actually money stolen from the players. That tells you all you need to know.
By "lower tier red pros" I mean the ones that were not in a position to make decisions because they were not on the board. I firmly believe a lot of these owners declined being on the board so they could use the "plausible deniability" defense.
