Professional poker players have quality but not all of course. There can be many cheats and there have been many cases in the past. Some players who cheated are millionaires in these days but poker is a legal game where you can cheat but when some players commit illegalities it is not ok.

Daniel Cates has been tergeted in the past by his ''fellow'' pro poker players many times , because of some incidents . I remember on a forum , reading the thread , where half of the members were accusing him , theo other half were defending him . i remember some saying he had more such incidents in the past , and that he has some friends who trap him , some bad friends who mislead him , cause he is actually a manchild ,many times do things his friends suggest , but he has no bad intentions deep down inside

Dan Bilzerian is a smart man and a formidable player. He was on the side of justice in this case and made it official. There was another option: when he could talk with Daniel Cates and they both came to an agreement. This was illegal of course, but it's good that he did it and news spread everywhere.

Well, the poker´s players world is very sensitive to the gossip! In this time when the "influencers" can have a million of follower to see what they do with their hair, this vanity world, is very auspicious to all the stupid talk. I like the constructive news, when is telling the building of a player career

At this moment Daniel Cates hates Dan Bilzerian very much. I think this is not normal but his frustration is great. Normally he has to "get back on his feet" and bear the consequences. In a few years this scandal will be forgotten but cheating is a black spot for him.

These two buddies , who now feel victims of unfair play against them , have also done the same thing in the past . They , among all , will cast the first stone , lol We have better things to look after , worse scandals on poker scene to deal with , than three high stakes players , and their silly childish dogfight , or catfight , whatever , lol

It is a horrible decision for Daniel Cates to cheat and shame must to remain on his face many years. A player of his caliber who has a good profit from poker does not have to do that. I like what Dan Bilzerian did. Cheats must be caught.
