Ultimate Bet Cheating?

Nov 3, 2008 9:15 pm Report Abuse

Did anyone get caught up in the Ultimate Bet Cheating scandal? I stumbled upon this article:

http://www.kahnawake.com/gamingcommission/news.asp

I was not involved, but found it interesting. I had heard nothing about it, yet apparently Ultimate Bet had to pay millions of dollars back to people that had lost money in the deal, plus a big fine. Kind of interesting and I was just wondering if anyone out there had been caught by it or had heard anything about it. I'm sure it is bound to happen and it is good to know that someone out there is keeping an eye on things and did catch the guy involved. It was someone associated with their affiliate program. So, it may not have been Ultimate Bet itself that was cheating, but scary to think you could get cheated on such a big site. Especially with Phil Hellmuth backing it.... Anyway keep playing and rest assured that people are looking out for you, but still pay attention. Good Luck...

I don't know if they have him or not. Seems like since they know who he is, they could catch him. Of course, he probably fled the country as soon as he knew he was caught. At least Ultimate Bet is paying people back. I suppose they will have to get their money from him, if/when he is caught. Bummer. I have not played much on UB, no real money. Just some play money to see what they were like. Seemed OK, nothing special.

this is somewhat old new very ugly shit that went down. I haven't read up on it lately but last time I did they were "talking about paying back players"
Haven't read your link yet but Its good new to hear that they are finally going to pay back the players that got cheated if it is in fact true.

I beleive russ was....if i read it right....one of the cheaters.... actually the mastermind behind this scandal thats why you dont see him anymore. there were about 8 or 10 people involved.....peace
