Does anyone have what could be called actual evidence that the guy was cheating?
Not some self serving pod cast, or no one is that good
Just a thought, you know America, just saying
Well if the only evidence, that count to you, is his confession, then no. However if you are satisfied with the kind of evidence, that most criminals are convicted on, then absolutely certainly yes.
A winrate for starters is not just a question of "no one is that good". Poker variance can be expressed mathematically, and if his winrate is for instance a one in a billion probability, then yes that is actual evidence. DNA tests are used in crime cases, and they are also not 100,0000% sure.
Then there is the way, he play his hands. This is also evidence, and its not "some self serving pod cast". It is the poker community coming together to keep its own house clean. If a player make a "bad" play, that happen to work, one or two times, it is not edidence. But when he does it again and again, at some point this also become a mathematical improbability. Folding top pair on the turn when he is against a set and therefore drawing dead. Losing the minimum with second nuts type hands. Making huge bluffs when his opponent is weak.
And finally it was all caught on camera. We can see, how he constantly look at his cell-phone, which is placed in his lap. We can see, how after cell-phones were banned, he has something under his hat, which look like bone induction earphones. There is a hand, where his
bluff get called, and he raise his arms as to say "OMG you called me with THAT", but he start doing it, before his opponents cards are visible.
All of this is documented in hours and hours of videos made by the "self serving pod casts", so its there for anyone to see, who actually care about the integrity of poker.
