Brian Townsend has been in the center of the storm since last week when he got his red pro status removed (for a month) by Full Tilt after that they found out he had been using a non-allowed program to save hand history against Isildur1, and also discussed and shared this information with Brian Hastings and Cole South.
After this, Brian Townsend wrote in his blog that he was the sole one to break[...] Read more » Tony G comments on the Brian Townsend scandal

load of crap seriously why cant they talk about hh after a game with whoever they want when u watch poker on tv your telling me that all the guys dont watch it back and see what each is playing and analyze the hands and i am sure when they get together things will be said about previous hands from previous games and to be honest if he is stupid enough to keep losing to them and sitting with them when he is losing he has no bankroll management skills and discipline either he deserves nothing and the poker is rigged for the pro's anyway and full tilt dont care because they win from the rake anyway f*&k him teach him a lesson for being out smarted and dont give him anything back.

i think tony g is right townsend should show more responsible since he is a pro at full tilt poker. he has previously also cheated and should know better.

Well he hasnt said any thing new has he? Yeah every one knows its wrong its just up to Fulltilt to dish out the punishment for Brian. Taking his pro status off him for a month.... sorry that dont cut it mate he has just pocketed over $3mil and now he is given a months holiday....Naaaa FTP that sucks.
If you think you feel bad for Isildur1, how about his financial backers if he had any? Brian should be ban since he has been caught cheating more than once. But money talks so nothing will probably come of it because FT will want to keep a reg at the tables to generate rake.
Generate the rake? What kinda b******t is that.. he's a RED pro, he get's 100% rakeback anyway. Ok not now for one month, but seriously, if they wanted to make money off him, they'd take the red pro status off for a year.
In my opinion though, he should get a ban for life. And not just on FT, but every pokerroom.

Prehaps FTP should just freeze any $ from brian townsend's acc and ban him from FTP to set a good example for other PROs of FTP that no one should get away with it. Prehaps any money on towsends acc should be sent back to isildur1

Hello everybody! Tony G Oh this is really a big mouth lol. But he is right, he speaks wisely. Me what I think is that it is nice to databases. But do not push it too far because it kills the game Nobody will soon play its limits on line is too risky
