We also have a winrate, that no poker player in history has ever achieved without cheating, and we have dusins of hands, that were played in a way, that only makes sense, if he knew, what his opponents had. And we have footage of him acting in a way, which only makes sense, if he knew his opponents cards.
I am not going to go through all the examples. You can start by watching the videos made by Doug Polk, if you are actually interested in the case and not just in looking smart in a forum. Over and out.
Have you heard of the saying "Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones"? You are so fired up about Postle having to be convicted for cheating, but taking things out of context and using them trying to prove your point is flat out cheating in a discussion or debate. What does win rate have to do with your murder example I was talking about there?
By the way, accusing me of "trying to look smart in a forum" was such a cheap shot and a personal accusation that I had done nothing to deserve, I had addressed you only with respect and consideration. Even now I still perceive you as a discussion partner, for just because you have a different opinion does not make a bad person by any means. This is not a contest, my friend, we can both be right, both be wrong and anything in between, that is what's great about forums.
I have watched enough to see what evidence the accusers have thus far: win rate, bulge in the hat, phone on lap, at times he looked and behaved in a suspicious way, "incorrect" plays leading to wins. Am I missing something?
This thread is about Postle's defense in Court, not about our opinions about him being a cheater or not. Postle looks like a cheater, walks like a cheater, and quacks like a cheater, pretty much everyone agrees about that, but in Court none of that counts.
The only explanation he will probably give is about his win rate, the rest of the evidence is so circumstantial that all his lawyer has to do is say "Objection", and the Judge will throw it out before even making it to trial.
But for discussion purposes let's take this extra evidence point by point:
- Bulge in the hat: he can flat out admit he was using bone conduction headphones, they are perfectly legal and available for purchase, some are specifically designed to go under the hat, they work just like regular head phones but instead of air they use bone to transmit the sound. One could potentially cheat using bone conduction headphones just like he could using regular headphones. During the interviews it is both normal and expected for people to take off their headphones, both air conducting and bone conducting.
- Phone on lap: there is no law against keeping phone on his lap, he could legally keep it between his butt cheeks if he wants
- Looking suspicious: ridiculous evidence in a court of law for obvious reasons, but, hypothetically, if that could be used to convict someone, all black men in the US would be in prison, according to the Police
-"Incorrect" plays leading to gains - that's the easiest one. Just download from Cardschat thousands of posts made by people complaining about their "correct" plays leading to losses
