    has anyone read the Bloomberg Russian poker bot article?

     

    its behind a paywall for me, but it does sound like the Russians volunteered to give Bloomberg this report

    For me, this confirms my suspicions about online poker. Thanks God for live poker in Texas, as there is little reason to play online now.

    Looks like Israeli intel blew up Hezbollah pagers across Beirut. Fucking savage.

    It was literally a pager.  What it seems is that Israeli intelligence compromised whoever provided Hezbollah with the devices.

    re; Telegram

     

    Quote

    Today we're looking at the importance of Telegram. No, we're not talking about the thing a telegraph sends. We're talking about the messaging platform created by Pavel Durov that's causing quite the stir as of late.

     

    Telegram has become the platform of choice for many of the world's most unsavory characters - think the Russian military and ISIS. Telegram and its founder opted to not cooperate with Western governments and resisted any form of data sharing with authorities. This was the case, until founder Pavel Durov was recently arrested and promptly released in France.

     

    Now, if I was someone who knew I was wanted in a number of countries, I would probably avoid visiting said countries. I would imagine Durov would do the same. So, I suspect that this was all part of some elaborate deal that Durov and the French authorities cut. If that's the case, there could be some major implications.

     

    Remember how I mentioned that Telegram was the choice platform for unsavory characters. Well, if Western governments can get their hands on these messages, logs and information, that would be a huge intelligence breakthrough that the Russians would love to avoid...

    TCH is absolutely murdering Red Star right now.   

    I played at Red Star on Monday starting at noon, never a full table, 6-8 handed. played 2 hours and when I left it was 4 handed. 

    Wed night, till 10a the table never had more than 1 person waiting to play.

    last night, the game broke as soon as the KC Balt game ended.

    played today got to Red Star at 430, its 1 table that when I take my seat is now full.  play for 3 hours, we get a few players come in, but more leave than come in.

    we ended up 3 handed at 745 and it broke almost immediately after. 

    maybe it starts back up after the Philly GB game, but fuck normally on Fri night its 2 tables, with a 3rd  2/5 /match stack until 8 or so, then usually a 3rd normal game starts until 11ish. 

     

     

    The Lodge is getting hit as well. When I check, their table count is down as much as 50% from usual. In reply, they're doing a bunch of promos for the week of Sept 18th-22nd, including 50% off time, a true 100k free roll, a meet-up game, $500 lucky seats, and a $10 annual member ship.
