13:00 This is the hand where Postle would have been exposed on a slightly different runout. It's Nut Flush vs Straight Flush (on a Paired board).
...Postle just calls down. He doesn't value-bet.

It's not confidence inspiring that no one was ever convicted surrounding this.

For sure, Opti! Great point.

A college Stats professor could show how far to the right this guy's results were. The poker pros have documented his +BB per hour. I'd imagine that he was ~ +10 Standard Deviations to the right of random.

The KK fold is an absolute joke. It's a 50,000:1 shot to pick up two random hands and have KK run into AA.

[Optional]

I don't think there is any real argument that he wasn't cheating here.

Evidence is overwhelming, even without the statistical improbabilities.

Opti, there's more footage out there:

*The better players studied Postle and knew that he was bluffing too much.
...They started calling him down with Ace-hi.
...Even with perfect information, opponents were adjusting to him.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Furthermore:
1) The ego on this fukin guy.
2) His brain must have two marbles bouncing around. As if no one would figure it out.

*You'd have to be a complete a$$-hole to think the KK hand wouldn't trigger alarm bells.
...Props to all the guys that called this fuk down with Ace-hi.

Yeah I watched heaps of it at the time.


He did an interview denying it again a couple of months ago again.

36:00 Bart exposes him on a hand where Postle can't possibly take this line.
...And Postle laughs like a little kid.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

18:00 This scumbag rivers a Full House with 88.
...He doesn't All In. He just calls down on a 99T board.

Opti, I said this years ago:

1) Veronica deserves credit for whistle-blowing on this guy.
2) Joe Ingram deserves a Pulitzer for the hand breakdowns.

Anybody who's played for a little while realizes that it's a game of Value/Bluff ratio. The smoking gun is that he NEVER runs into the Nuts. Veronica stated this early on.

If Postle was wise enough to run a game, he should have:
1) SHOVED the KK into AA. At least you'll have some credence.
2) SHOVED the 88Full into the TTFull.
3) SHOVED the Nut Flush into the Straight Flush.

At least you could say that you were playing it square. Veronica has this guy pegged. This guy is more than just stupid, he's delusional.

Agreed, he should have lost pots on purpose here and there and in the situations you outlined to keep it under the radar. He might still be doing it if he was smart about it.

Veronica was saying they did do that, and the guy from Stones and Postle kept pointing it out like they thought that somehow explained the inexplicable hands

22:00 (from Veronica's link): Wow, I didn't think Postle could look worse.
...This guy might be a space alien.

Yeah, I later heard that. They were (sometimes) chip-dumping. As if that explains the implausible hands.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Ha-ha. This was very well-played.

Gary slow-rolled him and gave him the business.
