Just as it appeared that the Absolute Poker scandal was going to fade away, UltimateBet has admitted that their security has been breached by an employee using a super account; one where they were able to view opponent’s cards. That’s two breaches that the Kahnawake Gaming Commission has allowed to occur in eight months. This latest breach could be in excess of a million dollars once all hand histories are studied.

The Gaming Commission is trying to sweep this under the rug, but something must be done before public opinion swells that online poker is unsafe to play. How was this permitted to happen again? Is the Kahnawake Gaming Commission going to take steps beyond the fines it issued last time this happened?

That move was shady enough, let alone doing it twice. If the Commission gives another $500K fine this time, someone will have made a cool $500k profit.
