Cheating on Betfair!

[SteveO]

The following is a paragraph posted on Betfair by the poker player who calls himself ariston and was on the Betfair payroll: I am not going to defend myself as I have done wrong and admitted it. I played on somebody elses account to try and help them get their stax cash score up as he was crap at cash. I was also crap as well obviously because I lost. I refunded the losses to him as he had been kind enough to put me into a live event when i was broke and he had no money in his account for the last few days of stax and couldnt put much in there. I refunded the money by dumping to him on a low stakes cash game (he thought at the time stax may have been based on big blinds won so even though I only gave the money back he had in effect increased his stax cash score). This I admit is morally wrong and against the sites terms and conditions and I will accept any punishment they deem fit. I know many other players dumped cash to him as well but I wont go into that as I dont mind admitting my guilt and involvement, it is up to any other players to hold their hands up if they wish. The player in question was not red14 or 14red and any attacks on him have fk all to do with any of this as I have never been involved in anything with him (or I am not aware of any cheating done by him). I have given a full statement to betfair of exactly what went on and when and currently have my old laptop being examined to find the IP blocker (or static IP address I was provided with) to prove what I am admitting is true. The other instance was where no actual cheating took place but a discussion did take place about one player buying another players chips in a team event. This would have been blatant cheating if it had happened and I wouldve been complicit as I was involved in the conversation but it never happened so I am not guilty of anything apart from a conversation there ( when i was about 20 I discussed with a mate how easy it would be to rob a bank as I had previously worked in one- we didnt rob any bank but i suppose i was also guilty of having a conversation where it was discussed...does this make me a bank robber??). If we are guilty for anything we ever discuss I would be hung drawn and quartered for some of the conversations I have after a few beers. You can all decide for yourself in which instance I was cheating and which is worse. Punterz obviously wants the conversation highlighted to deflect from his blatant cheating (remember I was only one of many playing on his account/dumping cash to him but the only one to admit it on here). I have offered my resignation as a writer for betfair and fully expect to be banned from the site for this, I have also blackened my own name. I still feel glad its out in the open and I no longer "owe" anything or am held over a barrel by a very dillusional man. If it helps highlight cheating on the site it will be worth it. This just highlights what the average poker player is up against online whereby you don't just have to beat the rake you have to battle the cheats and the rigged software too;).
