Russ Hamilton officially implicated

Former main event world champion Russ Hamilton has officially been named as one of the people involved in the theft and siphoning of up to $60 million dollars from Absolute Poker and her sister site Ultimate Bet. 60 minutes is going to air soon and will be focusing their investigations on Hamilton. Obviously there were numerous people involved, how many of his friends accounts were involved? This is just unreal, I hope the people involved get prosecuted and spend time behind bars!

hey tillerman,

I was wondering if you could help me with implied pot odds.

do you always call when holding a straight or flush draw?

how do you know your opponent is going to pay you off if you hit your straight?

what's the right amount to bet on the river? would it be correct to always bet half the pot on the river?

thank you

Just what poker needed... Some more bad press to scare people away. People were already concerned about the legitimacy of poker sites and now having this broadcast on 60 minutes is gonna be disastrous.
