Everyone is innocent until proven guilty... But to say that everyone is still a suspect until the guilty party is found is also a valid statement.

everyone is innocent until proven guilty is in a court of law. there is no such standard in the court of public opinon

i believe postle cheated i don't know exactly how and i can't prove anything but the laws of probability say he cheated

the US supreme court ruled i can't define pornography but i know it when i see it
i feel the same way about postle i know the difference between great play and cheating play

The mistake made with Postle case were those involved were naiive.

The lesson learned is if anyone believed fraud is being committed in such a circumstance (casino) they need to quickly and discreetly approach the authorities to get the police/FBI involved in a sting operation.

Airing suspicions over social media and then have the poker community 'investigate' the incidents was a stupid move. It literally gave Postle and his accomplice (s) weeks to dispose of evidence. Further, I believe once the matter was raised with the authorities the entire matter was so tainted (again, naiively by the likes of 'Inspector' Ingram etc.) the police had little incentive to get involved.

So, any suspicion of fraud/cheating, involve the police at the earliest opportunity before anyone else.

Postle didn't cheat, he just plays GTO better than anyone. If he knows that you are better in a hand, he will easily lay down aces full. He is a man 10 years ahead of his time.

Its certainly time to move on, since this case is completely dead. But that does not mean, we dont know, if he cheated. We just dont have the 100% smoking gun evidence, and we dont know the details such as, who else were involved, or if it was really a one man job. But with hindsigth the cheating is so obvious, that the only surpricing element is, that it was able to continue for more than a full year, before someone finally sounded the alarm loud and clear. Even just all the chrotch staring is like "WTF is this guy looking at down there???"

Also its not like, Postle and Stones have not gotten any "punishment" for this. Postle will likely never be able to play live poker anywere again, so he has lost, what was his "job" for many years. And as for Stones, they are not running a live stream any more. Which by the way is a bit of a shame, because apart from all the Postle hype post july 2018, when the cheating began, these streams were quite fun to watch, and most of the people involved in them as players or commentators seem to be very nice. But on the positive side other casinos have probably learned the lesson now, that a live stream need to be kept safe ;)

I do not cheat, which is why I must say that I consider myself innocent

I have a suspicion that he cheated but we don't have any concrete proof so it's hard to accuse him of cheating.

Maybe you are aware that you are just not skilled enough to get away with cheating, don't despair, with experience you will gain confidence & afore you know it you will lose that bothersome innocence. ;):D
