Hi Vanessa, thank you for joining us.

Once again the UB scandal has reared it's ugly head with the release this past week by Travis Makar of the Russ Hamilton recordings. In the tapes it is strongly implied that Annie Duke knew of the existence of the Super User account which enabled the user to view players hole cards in real time. She admitted on her Twitter account of having used it on a time delay to comment on tournaments she hosted. At Lock Poker celebrity sponsors such as Michael Mizrachi and Annette Obrestad continued to promote the site and encouraged players to deposit money even when it was clear the site had no way or intention of ever paying them back.

My Question is this. Do you feel that poker pros sponsored now or in the past by sites like Lock, UB, Full Tilt or Pokerstars have any obligation to continue to promote dishonest sites once they are aware of their activities?

This isn't an easy question as you are under contract. Outing your employer may in fact make it more difficult for players to get paid back. Is it ever permissible to let some indiscretions slide? After all, even Poker Stars, the gold standard of on-line poker sites has some skeletons in its closet. What's your feeling on this? Collect a paycheck and keep quiet or burn it all down? Or maybe something in between.

Thanks.

P.S. you look great in a bikini.
