Livello 14 : Limits 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Many were shocked this week when Ali Imsirovic broke his silence this week more than a year after being accused of cheating by other high-stakes poker pros.

But few were satisfied with the answers provided by the 2021 GPI Player of the Year, who admitted to multi-accounting for several months in 2020, and again in 2022, while dismissing other allegations as "ridiculous," including that he's used real-time assistance (RTA) and recently been running an online cheating ring.

The poker community's reactions to Imsirovic's video make up the latest edition of The Muck.

Livello 13 : Limits 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

On a heads-up flop of 2♦6♦2♣, Maria Ho checked and faced a bet from Justin Lapka. Ho raised it up and Lapka made the call.

The turn brought the 5♦ and this time both players checked, revealing the 4♠ on the river. Ho now took the initiative and led out. Lapka was having a difficult time putting it all together and went as far as quietly asking, "What do you have, Maria?" which received no response.

Ho had just won a hand the last pot and even her previous adversary seemed to be trying to catch some kind of read on her. She remained still and finally Lapka showed J♦5♣ for a small pair and missed flush draw as he folded, relinquishing the pot to Ho.
