“Even though this pushes me up the pay scale, it’s not a happy thing to see broken rules in poker,” he told PokerNews. “I trust the Game Integrity teams have made the correct decision. Working with various companies in poker now over the last six years, I know what they do is well reasoned, and not a decision made lightly.”
