it's pretty sure that isildur either have some more personnal funds, anyway even if he doesn't, it's pretty sure that he will be stacked by another rich player that believes in him and get everything back in few days.

Nah Isildur won't get his money back. Townsend and Hastings are a part of FTP-team right? They'll find some loophole at FTP, letting it running out in the sand.

don't think he will...I think the problem with the database sharing is more a global-level sharing. I don't think that sharing DBs between 2 players only (maybe effectively doubling the size of your DB) makes a statistical variation of importance

LMAO - You voted for the "green tree" too
Anyway, that was extremely stupid for him to admit he studied his hands during an interview. So now how can he even deny that fact now that it's taped. So yes, the poker room rules have been broken and when you sign up you agree to the terms of that room.

Will Dwan get his money back?
Im affraid you are right, it's unlikely he will get any of these money back because it's very hard to say how much of Hastings winnings were won because of illegal studies.
"It will be difficult or even impossible to proof"
No it's pretty easy when he said it on tape.
"Sure Isildur didn't study Dwans game, before those two played?"
You are right he probably didn't but even if he did he hasn't been stupid enough to admit it on tape.
"Will Dwan get his money back?"
I don't know what money you are talking about, who cheated Dwan?
Your a pro offcourse you study oponents with all the software thats in hand and yeh even you can discuss it with other pros, why the fok your suchs a stupid ass to talk about this in an interview 
Soooo stupid of him
