Reply To Travis Makar Interview About Ultimate Bet Scandal

Reply To Travis Makar Interview About Ultimate Bet Scandal

Today I wanted to comment on the recent interview with Travis Makar and subsequent discussions.

Firstly, I want to make sure everyone knows that I never made an offer to pay-off Brainwashdodo and I never did pay or instruct any payment to be made to Brainwashdodo. It is true that he tried to blackmail our company by threatening to release a bunch of confidential company information including financial records and player data. However, after unsuccessfully trying to pursue him with the help of local law enforcement, I simply told him that I was unwilling to pay anything to him.

New info on My Show, Mike Matusow's New Show, and Top ranked player "Paulgees81"

Hi everyone, Scott Matusow here with you all! We are Make Poker Legal appreciate the support everyone has been showing us lately. Our main goal is to get some common sense real regulation for online poker, that benefits both the players and the sites. We strongly beleive all offshore online poker sites should become “onshore” in The USA, Licensed like any other corporation/Business, and regulated much in the way Nevada Casinos are regulated. We beleive in the right to due process and consumer protection, as well as the online sites rights as well to be protected from cheaters and scammers, with those cheaters and scammers, when caught, facing criminal and civil penalties. Same applies for any online poker site that might engage in the same activity.. We beleive in RNG audits by a federal regulating body, much like how The FAA audits the Airline industry to make sure they are compliant within the laid out regulations.
