XVP: 60 Minutes online poker story

Don't bother. It was a horrible piece of news, stuffed full of inaccuracies
and, in one case, an outright lie. Misinformation at it's finest.

List the inaccuracies and outright lie.

I am all in.

I've heard a lot of people say what you said about the quality of the piece,
but honestly it's what I expected from 60 Minutes. That's not a good thing
or a bad thing. They have their audience, which is different than you and
me, so they dumbed it down accordingly.

The worst omission, which I was surprised about, was they didn't delve into
how flagrantly arrogant the greedy cheaters became on the river, betting in
some cases with a 10 high when they saw their opponent had a 9 high.

But all-in-all, I thought it was a good piece considering their audience,
and hey, Andy Rooney is still around, so that's a plus too.

I'd think the "max-greed" strategy would be just the opposite. One
should bet on the end with a nine high vs. a ten high but not bet with
a ten high vs. a nine high.
