Darren Woods accused of cheating
|
Darren Woods is a specialist in Limit HE, winner of a WSOP bracelet this summer precisely in this manner and professor of PokerStrategy.
A week prinicipio, a player of the highest levels Limit HE 888poker with the nick ‘ThrCnBeOnly1′ opened a grueling post on 2 +2 forums accusing cheat and swindler Woods.
‘ThrCnBeOnly1′ is one of the players who came to 888poker Woods’s hand as an affiliate and because of that professional relationship, maintained some contact through instant messaging. Like many players, ‘ThrCnBeOnly1′ accounts have been opened and played in different rooms.
The first track something weird about surrounding Darren Woods was in one of his videos PokerStrategy, Darren analyzed against just one session ‘ThrCnBeOnly1′, But this session took place on iPoker and under a different nick Darren Woods has on the network and ‘ThrCnBeOnly1′ knew.
In the video your nick and hid replaced that of his rivalBut forgot to hide the date and number of table. An acquaintance of ‘ThrCnBeOnly1′ floated it to check that PokerTableRatings precisely the session was played against our hero by a certain ‘dingdonk1984′.
They are the best times to find action at the tables of limit, so ‘ThrCnBeOnly1′ started playing in a No Limit tables 888poker in which you can enter with 5BBBut no upward limit. Calls Push or Fold tables. The limits were high, 500/1000.
Woods appeared only for those tables from week to week, and according to him, gamble a bit.
One day, the appearance of a fish called ‘liverfc123′ attracted the attention of the tables Push or Fold. Darren Woods ‘Dooshcom’ was one of those who signed up for the game. ‘Liverfc123′ lost about $ 70,000. He reappeared with the nick ‘benhamcheese’ and bustee the two accounts. Its latest reincarnation used the nick ‘benkaremail’. It is difficult to prove but the style of play and behavior at the table left little doubt.
‘Dooshcom’ participated in all sessions in which these three nicks lost between $ 200,000 and $ 300,000, Reason enough for all the regulars in the room were more than willing to play against those nicks. Woods himself was regarded as a fish moves more due to their very weak.
In the next month and a half, ‘benkaremail’ and ‘Dooshcom’ had big gains. ‘ThrCnBeOnly1′ went on to lose almost $ 400,000Especially three bands playing against these two players.
Then Swedish two regular the push or fold tables were put in contact with ‘ThrCnBeOnly1′ to tell their suspicion that ‘benkaremail’ and ‘Dooshcom’ were doing collusion. Channel was created along with several regular Skype more and soon became clear that this was.
Always sit togetherNot only in tables push / fold but deepstack or limit. They played extremely poor among them to attract other players to the tables and the pattern was always the same, seat selection and opening the tables. However, tables in other fishes in which there was ‘bankeremail’ Darren Woods did not appear.
After collecting the evidence considered sufficient, regular group drafted a joint statement presented to 888poker. The accounts were blocked pending investigation.
The statement, signed by ‘needAAAA’, ‘thrcnebeonly1′, ‘algohr’, ‘jnevanli’, ‘poolfc1′, ‘hhhhhhhhhepp’, ‘antero666′ and ‘d144n1′ was published in this thread on 2 +2.
If there was any doubt that because of the sensitivity of the matter is obvious that there is, more evidence accumulated when the alleged collusion spent to develop in the iPoker tables. In this network the role of fish corresponded to a player named ‘Salamdolphie’ and the regular game and that, curiously, only questionable play badly against fish was played by … ‘Dingdonk1984′.
‘ThrCnBeOnly1′ proceeded to warn the iPoker regular and the partnership lasted less than a thousand hands, enough to earn a good amount of money from at least four players, including nosebleeds known player ‘kagomekagome’.
Darren Woods has written several posts in his defenseAfter remaining silent for two days. His defense is based on the following:
- The number of hands is completely insufficient to establish patterns.
- Posted hands as evidence, and subsequently analyzed by Woods without evidence of collusion.
- Brings their own hands would make no sense playing a team with ‘bankeremail’.
- Attacks his accusers he said, ‘ThrCnBeOnly1′ has an agreement to divide by 50% ‘Kostya’ caundo play at the same table. Two of the signatories are roommates and the two Swedish players at once curiously come to the conclusion that cheating.
- The poor play was produced at times caused by the tilt.
- The push or fold tables are not the most profitable to defraud anyone.
- Why do it in the room that you sponsor?
- Why do it in a room that only allows max cashouts of $ 75,000 a month?
- Why “burn” the three nicknames of ‘bankeremail’ in one sitting?
- Why do that when you just won a WSOP bracelet and has improved both your public profile?
As evidence of collusion are not irrefutable, the defense is not too strong Woods.
