I’m finding that my positioning is softening a little – and most of you know I’m not exactly the most forgiving of chaps.
My initial thought was that Absolute should disappear forever and shut up shop. The whole event has been appalling and certain individuals should end up in jail, in my opinion.
Take some time to listen to twoplustwo’s recent interview with Paul Leggett, Chief Operating Officer of Tokwiro Enterprises (owner of both Absolute Poker and UltimateBet).

The podcast is pretty long but you can skip to the main discuss at approx. 22 minutes and the interview itself kicks in at about 45 minutes.
See what you think.
Will *I* be promoting Absolute? No. It’s a personal decision and one we all have to make for our own sites and visitors. But at this stage I’m not going to criticise those who do – and that’s a different position to the one I would have had prior to listening to the interview.
I have the ironic luxury of not being much of a poker affiliate so any decision I make isn’t going to make much difference. I do feel for those of you who have loads of poker traffic and have a difficult decision to make with this.
