He might suck but his win will not be forgotten. Lets see what happens about his possible cheating scandle / collousion / paying off others ? it will all come out in the end just wait and see. i dont think this will be the end of it for Brian Hastings. He could even get kicked off Fulltilt as a result of his actions and what he has said to an interviewer.

surely he's won big and earned him some name for that, but he'll regret whole his life for accepting using databases if fulltilt decide to take action against him.

This is why it appeared a forum asking us what would we do if this hapeened. Well, Hastings is no "jon doe" player. Ok, so he is not a pro between pros, but he plays a lot for a long tim ago, and he knew what he was doing when going against Isildur. He ends up being the best because Isildur decided to extend his tilt thinking he could manage to end up better then things were running, but that didnt happened. This way, Hasting kept winning each time more in a row, till the time he was is the best winning level ever. Good for him!
