IMO toysteel should have reported the matter as soon as he saw it happen.

Cameras and TD's are one thing but the best supervision and regulation comes from the vast majority of players who want to play the game fair n square.

Can't wait to see what develops.....

if true that opens pandoras box....
people who have played tournaments in the past would be open to refunds!
as they do online when proven cheating and collusion has happend they have gone and refunded all involved.

is that a fair call?

this is the exact reason i know sc wont come on here and confirm it as it could POSSIBLY! cost them a fortune?

im banking this is the last we hear of it.

Danny please post back and either

a) Confirm there were cheaters, out them, and state what disciplinary action has been taken (broken fingers etc) or

b) State footage has been reviewed thoroughly, no cheating was detected and Toysteel will need to sign up for yet another account.

Please do not come back and say that as you entered the security room (are you allowed in there?) they were just deleting the old data (or whatever they do these days) and had you not stopped to tie your shoe lace you would have been able to save the footage from deletion.
Danny's a world class balla TD.
He has lackeys to tie his shoelaces.

Well well,another cheating secret exposed.
No matter what Danny comes back with,it is a well known fact with the professionals that,in every casino which uses the same chips for all the tournaments,chips are pocketed for the next tournament.
It allows the professional,who may be and usually is,on a string budget to get one or two free rebuys.
It is even a stronger tool for freezeouts.
Almost impossible to detect by the slack casino staff and amateur players.

You can almost add this trick as one of the tools of the trade for the Pro tournament player.
If you did't know this trick,you are an amateur.

It is sad but this thread has actually taught some future tournament players another survival trick.

There is not a live casino in the world which is not a victim from this trick.

And to the guy who mentioned compensation.It is easy for the internet sites to compensate cheated players.They do it with the thiefs' money which has been confiscated.
