Mark Seif on Absolute Poker Scandal: “I Had Nothing To Do With This”

by Wicked Chops Entity on 10.26.2007 in Online Poker | 5 comments

For this week’s websiode of “The Toke,” Absolute Poker pro Mark Seif talks about the super-user account scandal at AP and attempts to clear the air about his involvement while addressing accusations leveled against him. The two-time WSOP bracelet winner shares how he initially heard about the scam and gives his take on AJ Green, the creepy looking kid reportedly behind the insider cheating scam. Seif also says that what happened could also happen at PokerStars.com or Full Tilt. Later in the video, Seif addresses accusations that he himself cheated during a session back in 2006 and takes shots specifically at DanDruff, co-owner of NeverwinPoker.com, for “fanning the flames.”

by Wicked Chops Entity on 10.26.2007 in Online Poker,Poker News | 1 comment

Ms_2Mark Seif stopped by the RawVegas.tv studios yesterday (we love those guys) to chat about the Absolute Poker insider cheating scandal, and among the topics discussed include:

- Meeting AJ Green and his impressions of the most hated man in online poker
- How he found out about the scandal and how he feels about the way Absolute’s handled the situaton so far
- His response to the accusations of cheating leveled against him on the forums
- NWP’s Todd “Dan Druff” Witteles and why he may sue him

Full video interview to be posted here at Wicked Chops Poker and RawVegas.tv this afternoon.

Until then, watch this related video of booth babes at the WSOP talking about “suck outs”. Come to think of it, the video has nothing to do with the Mark Seif interview. But neither does this photo of Grace Park and that shouldn’t stop you from looking. At least it didn’t stop us and we’re frickin’ role models.

Joanna Krupa is Here (Day 1C is Underway)

by Wicked Chops Entity on 7.30.2006 in Poker News,Tournaments | no comments

Joannakrupawsop_1Play is just underway for Day 1C of the WSOP and former 2006 Wicked Chops Poker Girl of the Year, Joanna Krupa is playing.

So we don’t care who else is.

But since some people do, other notables playing include Mark Seif, Steve Dannenmann, TJ Cloutier, Phil Gordon, Jean Robert Bellande, Antonio Esfandiari, Liz Lieu, Tuan Le, Nam Le, Mike Matusow, Carl Olson, Rob Mizrachi, Daniel Negreanu, Mats Rahm, Jen Harman and Mr. Jen Harman.

Obviously Krupa’s appearance on Day 1C has nothing to do with winning a bracelet but instead has everything to do with winning back our hearts from Keeley Hazell or whatever organ that is that seems to get excited every time we see Joanna Krupa.

Speaking of which, FOWCP and recent Parting Shot Girl Lacey Jones is also in on the action today as well as future Parting Shot Girl Lynette Chan, who has some seriously wicked poker chops and thinks we’re pervs.

4th Streeter and FOWCP Vaughn Sandman is back at the main event, and just as we did last year, we’ll keep tabs of his play today.

10 guys with the last name Nguyen are also starting today, as well comedian Louie Anderson and along the same weight, Joe Reitman.

In the sweat department, today we follow Chris “Stump” Abramski of The Chronicles of Stump. Stump won his seat via PartyPoker WSOP Steps. There’s not much action at Stump’s table during the first level, and it seems it’s mostly online players he’s up against. He’s up to 12k right now.

Yesterday’s notables include Allen Cunningham (81,000), David Chiu (45,000), Jeff "Mad Dog" Madsen (31,450) who of course ended with just a bit more than arch-nemisis E-Fro (30,200), Annie Duke (26,000), newly elected Poker HOF’er Billy Baxter (23,000), Mike Caro (23,000), our very own Sweat Jeff Sealey (18,500), Phil Ivey (16,000), and John Juanda (11,500).
