I was waiting for a GD thread to hopefully explain this for me, starting reading about it last night -

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11269073/Pro-poker-player-accused-using-hidden-vibrating-device-help-win-130-000.html

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11269983/Poker-fans-point-suspicious-footage-alleged-cheating-scandal.html




Anyone have any insight? From an amateur's viewpoint, this Garrett guy was being a dick and couldn't believe he could be beaten by her.. she could have just gotten lucky, but that second story with the ring disappearing is awfully suspicious.. Plus the whole refunding the money he lost, though she says she was "cornered in a dark hallway" so I dunno..

Is this ARFCOM-safe?

That's the kind of call you get from an absolute poker moron if you were playing a 2$ game.  No chance in hell a "professional" would make a call on that all-in with a Jack regardless of if you knew the guy was bluffing.

Girl:  "If my Jack wasn't a club, I would've been out"  

Guy (immediately calls her out on that statement):  "What do you mean if your Jack wasn't a club you would've been out?"

She was counting on getting clubs on the turn and the river?  That's a very low probability.

Her call seems ill advised, but I don't understand what's so great about his play. 78 suited with two over cards on the board --- going all in on a draw. The odds were 50/50 for both and she won.

The only reason this is news is the vibe accusation, which also only is news because of the chess player accusing some other guy of shoving a vibrator in his ass.

They both made stupid plays that they justify by claiming to have read each other. She ends up winning, so he accuses her of cheating and supposedly intimidates her into giving his money back. If she was cheating, why would she go in when the outcome was 50/50? Garrett's a sore loser.

People that are questioning his play and calling it as bad as hers don’t have the slightest understanding of poker.

His play was dang near textbook. He didn’t put her on trips or a high pocket pair.

Everything looked completely normal until she called.

Looks like cheating to me.

Having watched a fair bit of the games streamed by Hustler Live, they are full of bad players with far more money than sense. Calls that wouldn’t really be surprising, but obviously bad, at a $1-$2 cash game are routine.

He tried to buy a pot against her very recently too.   She even says "I'll stop doing this to you when you stop letting me. "  She was on to his shtick and he threw a hissy fit like a child.

What is ridiculous is his complaining about her play & accusing her of cheating. He’s routinely the best player in these games and has won a huge amount of money from them. He should welcome opponents like the lady here who make poor decisions and more often than not loose money to him.

You call or raise if you just don't care.  Like sponsored insta-thots don't care about money.    

In light of the accusations from the chess match, I'm not putting it past an attention whore to do it so she can gain some fame as the new fresh face in the professional poker world.  Once some people get a taste of fame, they can't get enough.  It's worse than heroin.   They just can't satisfy that need and will do whatever it takes to get that high again.

I personally don't care if anything happened.  I see two attention whores vying for more attention than the other.  If I ran the game, they'd both be gone.  Permanently.

I agree.

What I don't understand though is why she didn't say "jacks" and turn her hand over, then say "oh, shit I misread my hand". If she was cheating you would think she would have a couple answers ready if hands went to showdown and she had complete dog shit.

Without seeing the cards like the veiwer can,  in her head she should know that there's 30+ card combinations that can beat her jack high and she still puts all her chips in with a call.  He has great reason to bluff.  In his head a massive bet wins him the pot and he still has good outs even if she has a decent hand.  There's 12 single cards in the deck that beat her hand, not including pocket pairs or board pairs.  Calling a massive bet like that knowing pretty much everything in the deck beats you is incredibly stupid.

This is the kind of play that infuriates poker players, even if she's not cheating.  It could very well be that she's an actual completely bad poler player who ended up in a pro game and she didn't cheat.

People are saying her ring vibrates when she is ahead in a big pot.  There's a video out there of he chair obviously vibrating also.

So, even though she has nothing, she is actually winning so the vibration tells her to call a massive pot.  This would somehow involve coordination from the film crew.  The live streams are on delay so only film crew can see the cards in real time.
