This is not the first huge rip off scandal that has rocked the online poker world and it sure will not be the last one to do it either. It’s the nature of the game, some people just get too greedy and take money and run, look at all the big executives and ceos that made millions upon millions of dollars in bonuses that they gave to themselves for work and yet we had the economic crisis, these people are still giving themselves huge bonus payments for work taking millions of dollars despite the economic situations and despite the fact that some of these companies are actually flat broke and facing closure and liquidation. Even though the crimes that they committed are different in many senses they ultimately all have one thing in common that drives them to do what they do, they are all greedy. I don’t think it will be easy to find this guy, he’d be running hard.

Yeah it won’t be easy to find him, they have not found him yet so he has managed to evade capture for quite some time now. He probably has help though, family members or friends or something helping him keep hidden whether they are doing it by physically helping him hide or by giving him information on the authorities efforts to find him and telling him what areas they are searching for him, he may simply being paying complete strangers really good money to help him stay in hiding, there are just too many possible explainations for how he is managing to evade capture for so long. I think that there is one part of an explaination that we can not deny though when it comes to how he is able to stay on the run so well and that is that the money is helping him.

That is abit harsh really isn’t it. As though it is not bad enough that these people lost their money to a rich and greedy theif but now their money is actually helping the thief to avoid having to face justice, it is helping him stay out on the run and if he is ever caught there is not doubt that the money he has taken from these people will also be used to help him worm his way out of charges or at least face much lesser charges and jail time by him using the money to hire himself a very expensive, very slick and very competent lawyer. And of course all of that is only if they ever do manage to track him down, and that will only be if he washes ashore or something like that or he finally slips up and makes a mistake that ultimately gives his hiding place or his identity away.

When ever someone goes missing with either a heap of cash that is not theirs or they go missing and are a celebrity or are linked to a celebrity it is something that we don’t seem to hear the end of. Granted after some time the media attention on the matter does die down a little bit but it never completely goes away. If he is hiding out until the heat dies down and the focus on him is lesser and lesser then let’s hope that he is holding his breath too because that is not going to happen anytime soon, people will always bring it up until he is found, it is just our nature to love a good mystery and conspiracy. I mean look at Olivia newton john, years and years ago her boyfriend went missing, vanished into thin air, never to be seen again, it was assumed he was dead but infact he turned up some time in 2009 and was found by authorities. He had vanished and allowed everyone to believe that he was dead because he was in alot of financial trouble and knew that eventually they would declare him as legally dead and his child would be able to claim insurance money on his life and he could start his life over without debts as he did not want to ask Olivia newton john for money to help him out. If this guy can do it when he is in that much debt with hardly any cash on him then surely this guy from pitbull poker can do it with all the money he has.

One thing that is really a worry in all of this is that these people who do these kinds of things tend to prey on the good natures of other human beings, using them and lying to them in order to get something that they want. This guy is probably somewhere in the world paying some lovely old lady board every week or something like that telling her that he is new to town and recently widowed or something like that and probably tells her that he works late hours at night when she is asleep which is why she never sees him leave for work or come home or something like that. These people are predators, they see anything that they could remotely define as a weakness in a person and they will do what ever they can to exploit it.

Lol you have a very vivid imagination there. Although i do like your story but it makes him sound more like some kind of night stalking serial killer than a guy who is guilty of commiting a huge fraud and theft. And why would he bother paying rent or board anyway? He has probably bought some nice big house in the woods in some quiet little laid back lazy town, or maybe he had bought a small apartment in a huge building full of people in some big bustling town where no one cares to know who you are or where you came from. If i was on the run for what he has done then i would probably choose to do the latter, much easier to get lost in a crowd and small quiet towns tend to be those kind of places where everyone knows everyone and your life is never really private, everyone knows your business and if they don’t the usually seem to have a habit of snooping around to find out what ever they can about you even though it has nothing to do with them in the first place.
