Absolute poker superuser
From Gambling Splendor Wiki
The Absolute Poker Superuser scandal started when a user in the 2+2 forums asked Absolute Poker for a hand history of a tournament where he felt there was suspicious play by another player in the tournament. "POTRIPPER". He was sent an .xls file with the tournament hand history but when he opened the file it was gibberish and he couldn't understand what information they sent him. He shared the file with other poker players and they were able to find out that the file had every hand in the tournament with players email, ip and hole cards. They then took all the hand histories of "POTRIPPER" and analyzed how he played the tournament finding very suspicious play because of the seemingly perfect play throughout the tournament. He was making all the right decisions at the right times and the question is if he was doing this because he knew the other players cards.
