Sources Confirm Russ Hamilton Behind UB Scandal.

Former WSOP Main Event champion Russ Hamilton has been found by investigators to be one of the main suspects behind the Ultimate Bet/Absolute Poker superuser account scandals that robbed players of millions of dollars! Hamilton, who was apparently associated with the affiliate program at UB when they first launched, has now been fingered as a high priority suspect by the KGC and another security firm hired to audit the company.

Frank Catania Sr., president of Catania Gaming Consultants, has been working closely with the Kannawake Gaming Commission to figure out the key figures that were behind the controversy. Their final report includes Hamilton and several others as the main perpetrators of the much-publicized incident. The implication of these individuals carries some serious legal weight, and it is unknown whether they would be tried under international law or taken back to the United States to face trial.

The scandal, which was initially broken by online poker player Nat Arem, has been huge news as of late. The popular CBS program “60 Minutes” is set to air footage of the investigation into both AP and UB, and this will undoubtedly add even more fuel to a fire that has been burning for over a year now at the embattled company.
