It's a Photoshop job, as are several other ones getting around

Fake.
The Ace of Clubs isn't even positioned correctly. It's too high.
I've seen a PokerStars response to this, and they say that some of the players in the pic never participated in that particular tournament. It's just a bad photoshop.

I wonder how this seems to come up from time to time... Isn't that picture like 2 years old?

I just came up with an idea, why isn't there a subsection of the poker general devoted to "OMG its rigged"?

i just noticed that blinds are 10k/20k with 1k ante and it says the previous pot was 24000. doesnt make too much sense.

There's no such thing as cheating in SNGs, also the key to playing 26 SNGs is practice and ability to make quick decisions.

Of course not, never any collusion or anything like that...

Ah, the same question word for word that you asked at another poker forum on 1st May.
