About online player Ilari "Ziigmund" Sahamies<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ilari "Ziigmund" Sahamies is the first online poker player to hit the high stakes tables at Full Tilt Poker and amass over $ 1 million in stacks. This happened at the $500 \/ $1000 "Rail Heaven" table with Phil Ivey and Patrik Antonius.<\/p>\n

In total, Ilari "Ziigmund" Sahamies won at the tables within 6 days Full Tilt Poker <\/em> over $ 1.4 million. Probably, the rumors that he allegedly "broke" are greatly exaggerated.<\/p>\n

An attempt to cheat in a high-stakes game<\/strong><\/p>\n

IN THE USA \"\" players James Harrison, Joseph Ingargiola, Stephen Phillips and Steven Forte are accused of attempting to cheat with a famous high roller. According to preliminary data, the deceivers wanted to "cheat" their victim by only $ 75,000.<\/p>\n

The high-stakes game of Chinese poker, backgammon and chess was to take place in one of the hotels. With the help of special equipment, the swindlers intended to look at the victim's cards, in addition to this, the deck of cards was marked. When playing chess and backgammon, it was planned to use a computer program to calculate the moves.<\/p>\n

One of the defendants, Steven Forte, published a book in 2007 entitled "Protecting Poker", in which he gave advice on how to best protect yourself from cheating while playing.<\/p>\n

Other members of the criminal group have already been under investigation earlier. Joseph Ingargiola and Forte were prosecuted in 1990 for cheating Trump Castle Hotel & Casino while playing blackjack. Then they paid a fine of 108,870 dollars, and Ingargiola also received 3 years in prison. Apparently imprisonment did not do him any good.
