This was in promo email of Red Kings. Im not certain it is the same guy, but if it is they should ban him from every online gambling site. Anyway just wanted to share this.

yeah that is the same name as the superuser on AP and i agree if it is the same person he should be banned from all poker games online and live CAUSE WHAT HE DONE WAS UNBELIEVEABLE.

I think the person who chose that name just wanted attention and see the funny reactions he would get from people. I would find it funny seeing people flaming me (if I had that name)

still though that is pretty risky to have that name, mayb thats what the person wants tho.... people who no that name might think its the cheater and be a lil more warry playing against them and hes hoping he can get ppl to lay down their hands?

lol xxxitaliaxxx13, I was thinking the same thing.
i also think that if it was the real cheater then what would he be doing playing satellites to live games, he would be stuck having to play real poker after he won, if he was cheating he would be playing in the big gauranteed tournies, like at AP

yea plus im sure if the was the real cheater he wouldnt use the same name i mean that is just prue stupidity and if you run a scam like he did im sure hes smart enough not to use the same name
but still you need some cohones to use that name lol

One point is that the Cheater in AP was not Potriper. According to what i read, he pick up accounts from different inactive users, one of them that Potr1iper. He could be called SantiBotero for example Maybe it is the real one, maybe a guy that used the nickname after saw the scandal, but probably not the superuser.

Like all famous and popular names, many people want to use it. My bet is that someone was fortunate enough to ride that wave and register this well-known name.
