It wasn't "some players" who did this--it was people on the inside who cheated our players. This wasn't a "poker swindle" per se--this was fraud based on the theft of information. Saying they "got away with it" ignores the fact that the company refunded about $20 million to players who were cheated, and that there may still be repercussions for those who committed the crime.

Is it that $20M wasn't stolen... or that they didn't get away with it? Has someone been charged or did they have the money taken back? You say it’s not exactly true that some players stole $20M and got away with it.

Is it that $20M wasn’t stolen… or that they didn’t get away with it?

Has someone been charged or did they have the money taken back?
