Isn't it amazing how you attack all my posts, even the last ones like
emails from Ken Lennard. Most people have NO CLUE to who he is, do you?

About two or three years ago, I and two other cheats flew to Stockholm
during the Swedish Open, or it could have been the Spanish Open (sounds
funny, I know). I had to be sure Chris Bjorn wasn't in Stockholm, since
he and I don't get along and could ruin the scenerio. I was assured he
was playing in a tournament in London.

I flew to Stockholm with two other cheats for private games Ken Lennard
was going to provide. Previously, a member of our team had a medical
emergency the day prior to leaving, so we didn't go. But, Ken kept
emailing stating there was at least $100,000 to $500,00 to be made in a
couple of days. The first time I asked for a guarantee of $1,000 a day
each, plus expenses for all of us. I was guaranteed this upon arrival.

I had Ken checked out, and all seemed right on. One of our main targets
was Eric 123. After backing out the first time, Ken stated we could do
it again after 6 months. Checking everything out, we didn't bother
asking for anything since he never let up. I have at least 30-50 emails
from him, besides numerous phone tapes

I brought two world class mechanics along, one an expert with marked
cards with audio and video. I arrived on a Friday, but the other two
arrived on Saturday, basically about twenty hours late, due to late
flight departure.

Ken and I picked the other two up and we arrived at his family's Hotel
in Stockholm. We had four rooms, three on the bottom floor and one on
the second floor. Here we set up shop. A hole was drilled in the
ceiling, where we placed a camera covered by a smoke detector.
Meanwhile, we had marked cards, invisible to the naked eye in the game,
with audio ear pieces to tell Ken and our other player all the cards in
the game. We had a VCR machine that allowed 'Freeze frame', thus making
sure we knew every card all players had.

They were playing 300-600 Euro at a casino in Stockholm during this
time, but Ken who was sure he'd get the players, was not able to bring
them over. The game at the time was 6 handed, with three Finnish
players and three Swedish players. Ken, was basically a tough guy, who
turned chicken. After not being able to get the players over, we still
had our mechanic, the best in world under pressure. We needed Ken to
take us into the casino to win, since it wasn't possible to just go in
for some reason. One of the games was triple draw low, which was an
automatic win for us, unless you could beat the 'nuts' every hand.

Five days were spent flying, setting things up and such, but nothing
was made. Ken seemed to have no credibility with the players. Then, he
tried going behind my back. When he saw the cards on TV like they were
face up, he went crazy. He wanted the system for himself to cheat these
people. While he went around my back to approach these other two, they
played him like an accordion. I was in though, as I had gone back with
them for over thirty years.

He flew to the US during Xmas of 2003 possibly 2004 (to lazy to check),
if I'm not mistaken, to get the camera and marked cards. Since we were
jacked off by Ken, we did the same to him. We offered him the
merchandise for $25,000, but he was quite a bit short. He thought the
guys would let him in on a score so he could purchase the equipment.
WRONG.

Here, he was played like a violin. He'd be called at his hotel and if
he was there, he was told the game would probably be the next day. If
he wasn't there, a message was left the game was on. He spent about two
weeks waiting for a game to get the equipment to take back to Sweden,
from the money he thought he'd get from cheating with these guys in the
US.

Meanwhile, we were hoping he'd come up with the $25,000, for we'd have
given him BOGUS equipment, since he'd chickened out and gone behind my
back in Stockholm.

I have at least 25 more emails from Ken Lennard, plus tapes of phone
conversations. Passport records can verify I and the others were in
Stockholm during the winter of 2003, possibly 2004, plus passport
records would show Ken flew to the US during Xmas of one of these
years.

It's realy amazing you'd challenge something so easy to be proved,
besides the fact so few people know on RGP know who Ken Lennard is.
With these posts, the boys in Stockholm will know, since he caled them
to come over numerous times. They also know the games were six handed,
with three Swede's and three Dane's. The Danish guys apparently won the
money. They supposedly were cheating, thorug collusion.

It matters not what you state Razzo, for the passports would tell the
story. Chris Bjorn will know, since how would I know he was in London
at the time. Why would I care? The only reason I'd care, would be he'd
have ruined the game if he was around. As it was, Ken had little
credibility with these guys, since he owed one quite a chunk of money
and most thought he was broke.

I played online in Ken's apartment, stayed in his family's hotel, plus
ate in his friends restaurant. Stockholm and Sweden seemed like a nice
place to visit, but at that time I had gone for business. I'm positive
Casey Kastle had NO KNOWLEDGE of what was happening, as Ken was
planning to make a big score. When he saw the marked cards appear on TV
like they were face up, he thought he'd hit the lottery. The problem
was he didn't have the credibility nor the money to purchase the
equipment, nor provide a game.

Razzo, you can bet whatever you want and get 10-1 odds all of the above
happened. The passports records alone would verify all of this.

You called my bluff Razzo, now reap the rewards. I will be posting
emails from players for months now. Let one of them dispute they sent
them.

So far I have posted three named players who sent me emails. Dan
Negreanu, David Sklansky and Russ Hamilton. I was called out on all as
lying. All the parties verified they sent the emails. Tell me I'm
lying, for I'll show you their RGP response.

Your posts are 95% fabrication.. and the other 5% is mundane.. thus the

If I spent a little time playing poker, I'd be as broke as most people
who post here. I spend a minimum 50 hours a week playing poker and have

Since you obviously has provided emails from others here at RGP, would you mind
providing the one from Ken Lennard as well? I've recently stumbled over this
post and found it kind of interesting.

I mean if you where to provide it, it might give some strength to your story.

Ok?

Hi

Thank you for the replay. I wondered why you even replayed to all the
morons against you at recpoker. People so stupid that they are not even
capable of putting an argument together. I understand that you do it
while playing online so it does not take extra time. I enjoy it when
you slaughter them.

I have played with all the famous players and it only takes a few
minutes to realise if they have a clue about the game. So many of these
famous players plays like shit. I have to say that Tom Macevoy is one
of the biggest jokes.

I did not expect to have a meeting in Vegas with you. I am just letting
you know my travel plans. I understand that you have to be careful. I
also expect that I somehow have to earn your trust before an eventual
meeting. The best way would probably be that you tell me to be
somewhere in europe so I can show up at a place and time of your
choice.

My poker is at a high level, but I do not have a lot of experience of
split games. I will call or e-mail you if an interesting hand comes up.
(The six in the hand -concept while playing PLO 8 was very intresting.)
What I really would like is to play you and discuss afterwards.
Technical plays, betting patterns, tells e t c.

I never met the Swede you are talking about but I have heard of him.

When I started playing poker I wanted to win tournaments. Now I just
want to get the money. I will call you when I have sorted my thoughts
and can be more concreate.

I could have written to you under a false name, but that is not my
style. I am straight forward. Besides if I am hoping to win your trust,
then I must start by showing you trust. Here is my cell phone in USA:
702-767 4538

Here is a poker hand where you can evaluate my poker ability:

It is the third day of the WSOP last year. 110 players left with the
blinds 1-2000, ante 300(?). I have a dream table where I am chip leader
with 40 000 in chips. I was about number 30 overall. The game is tight
and I steal 4 pots the first two rounds.

Under the gun raises 2000. He has been playing tight. I put him on AA
or something shaky and week for that position lika a AT or KJs. Randy
Holland calls on the button. I consider him a solid player. (I played
with him today in Omaha 8 in a cash game. He did not protect his hand
so I could see his hole cards. Unbelievable!). The small blind calls. I
have never played with him before. It is day 3 so I have to assume that
he is good until proven otherwise. He has played only one hand. He
reraised a guy all in with JJ and got called with TT. He doubled up and
has 2-3000 more than me. The other two have around 30-35 000. I put the
button and small blind on typical "drawing" hands like Axs, T9s or a
small pair.

I have QT of spades. Some people say that I should fold since me hand
likely is dominated and could get me in serious trouble. I disagree. I
am playing this hand for a big flop. I am only betting two pair or
better on the flop. I can get away from trouble. I am not committed to
top pair. I will fold top pair on the flop if someone bets (and I feel
that he is not at it). I play this hand for the same reasons people
sometimes play 87s. Holdem is a game of high cards and I can take the
pot with my top pair on the turn if no one bets. I am getting a good
price for my speculative hand. I think calling is the right play.

The flop comes K,8s,6s with two spades. It is about 18 000 in the pot.
SB bets 4 000. I do not detect any tells form the players behind me. My
feeling is that they do not have something special. 4 000 is to me a
peculiar bet. A teaser bet with a set would be a mistake with the flush
draw out, his position and the stage in the tournament. With bottom two
he must protect his hand. I think he is making a stop-bet. He wants to
see where he is at or see the turn cheaply. I put him on either the nut
flush draw or a king with a weak kicker. Raising is for me out of the
qustion and so is folding. I am getting a good price for my draw and 4
000 does not hurt my stack. Pretty clear cut to me. I call and the
other two folds.

The turn is a J. I now have an open ended straightdraw to go with my
flush draw. He thinks for a long time and checks. He bet the flop
rather quickly. (If I was him and had flopped a set I would have bet 10
000 fast (like a weak king) and if a very aggressive player called
behind me. I would have checked the turn after some "serious thinking"
like I was giving up.)

It is 26 000 in the pot (a big pot!), not many players would give a
free card here. If he has a king the kicker must be decent, absolute
minimum 9, (my requirments would be T). If I bet he has to fold, unless
he has a J and made two pair on the turn. I do not believe that many
players would check top two here. He would have bet more on the flop
with a KJ. He feels week and I am positive that he will fold if i bet.
He has a weak king or the nutflushdraw taking time o the turn trying
to prevent me from betting.

Now everybody I ask say it is clear that I should move in. I disagree.
I see people moving in all the time with big overbets. It is so clear
that they are on a draw or have a weak top pair. Then they think that
their opponent play bad by calling them with only top pair. I hate that
play myself for the reason that it is so obvious. So many people get
knocked out by betting five times the pot all in with the nut flush
draw in the WSOP.

I have 42 500 left. If I had a king with a good kicker or even better
would I bet my whole stack? I think moving in stinks weak and I might
get called with a KT. But if I bet a small amount he migth check raise
me with the nutflush draw because he thinks that I will fold my weak
king. My play is to bet enough so that is is clear to him that I am
commited. (If I bet I am commited.) I want the bet to look as strong as
possible. If I had a set, how much would I bet? I do not want to bet so
much so he thinks that he is commited and hence have to checkraise or
"have to" call on the end for the size of the pot. I do not want to bet
to little so he get odds for his draw. I bet 20 000. I like this bet a
lot. It is clear that I am claiming that I have a hand and he do not
have odds to call with a draw. If he calls with his weak king (to my
surprice) and I miss I can buff on the end depending on how I feel
about it. If I do not bluff I have 22 500 in chips left. These options
I would not have if I moved all in. I am committed but I am leaving my
self with extra outs. To my surprice he starts to think and to my even
bigger surprice he calls.

The river is 4 of spades. He immediatley moves all in. I know that he
has the flush. He is sure that he has me be beat, but so would I after
about 30 seconds. I just know that he do not have the nutflush. For him
to call on the turn he needs more than 9 outs. There is absolutly no
chance that he would play like that. If he has me beat with the Kx of
spades what is his kicker? I have the QT and with the J he would of
course put me in on the turn. The 9? If he has a lower flush it can
only be 97s or 75s. With all of these three holdings he has really
misplayed his hand. He has flopped a very good hand and should have
made a bigger bet on the flop or gone for the checkraise. But that does
not help me now.

If he has a straightflush draw his play on the turn makes a little more
sense. He ofcourse have to fold the K9s on the turn because the bet is
big enough to really hurt him. The problem is that I am leaning toward
that he has that hand.

If I fold I have one of the smallest stacks but enough for a decent
chance. If I call and win I have about 110 000 and the rest of the
table between 20 and 40 000. I believe that I am a huge, huge favourite
to get in to the money (47 players) and I am a real contender for the
first prize. After a long time he (!) puts the clock on me. What does
that mean? Finally I call and he shows me K5 of spades. I still believe
that I played this hand perfectly. Randy Holland later told me that he
asked the guy if he would have called me on the turn and he said that
he would have. If this is true I surely made the right play. I do not
think that many people would have played like me on the turn.

Take care

Ken

Hi

Here is a (hypothetical) conspiracy theory:

The biggest scamming pack needs new members from time to time,
preferably some new kid on the block who can attract the suckers by
acting the sucker. It takes time and effort to build this credibal
character and his bankroll.

You want someone that is very intelligent but has a flaw. You want him
to be a degenerate gambler (like all tournament players) so he always
need a lot of money and therefore is easy to control. You might even
win his money by being his bookie.

Take a kid with this attributes who also is one of the best backgammon
players in the world. You tell the gossipers of the poker world that he
won $1-2 million dollars on backgammon with Chip Rease at his own home.
( Do you think that Chip would lose that amount given what you know
about him.)

Let's assume that it was the other way around. Gus gets cheated and
losees tha same amount. Since Gus "knew" that he was a big favourite
and he has this common money managment flaw he got burried deeply with
no chance to pay back. Now Chip gives him the option to join the pack.
Easy choice.

Now your new member has the bankroll to play in the biggest game. Let
him win a couple of tournaments while your at it. Imagine that you are
running a tournament where you have cameras on every players hand. The
one you wants to win wins. Who has won the WPT tournaments? You can
cheat good honest players if your guys do not make the final table and
let unknown young players win wich is good marketing and you know that
this young hot shots will give it all back on the toournament trail.

Hi

Last year at the world series I heard that Gus had won $1-2million of
Chip Rease playing backgammon at Chip's home. Nobody knew how much but
everybody "knew" that it was true. I thought that it was strange since
Chip is supposed be one of the best at picking of suckers. I was
skeptical that Chip with all his experience would lose that amount.

Expect Mads Andersen to win tournaments soon. He is also very
intelligent and a world champion in backgammon. He is playing a lot of
poker now and he is Gus Hansen's best friend. They have won a
respectable amount playing online PLO withs Swedes. The Danes have been
crushing the Swedes and I strongly believe collusion. I have only
played when staked since I been involved in the Internet business and
know how many ways there is to cheat and where ever there is money
involved ....

About a month ago Mads told me that he and Gus had been at Chip's place
where Gus had played him high stakes Gin Rummy. Maybe Chip was taking
his money back or maybe they did not play Gin but planned something
else.

Let's talk about Layne Slack. This is a play he did in the PLO 25-50.
He was raising almost every pot as usual. This is fine if you are deep
in money wich he was not. He raised the flop. Five-way action.
Everybody checked to him, he bets pot with the flop: K,2,2 He gets
checkraised and calls without hesitation. He was getting 5-2 on his
all-in call. Everybody knows that the other guy has minimum a duece.
Layne shows 7,7,5,4 (no back door flushes). A seven hits the turn. (I
do not think this was cheating) This is just a prime example of how the
tournament "stars" play in cash games, and surpricingly often in
tournaments.

A good time to call me is daytime after 12.00

Do you have any comments on how I played the hand in the World Series
last year?

Hi

I had a long talk with Casey yesterday. He told me among other things
about
his Dom Perignon experience in California playing hi-lo with you and
your
bunch.

I have come to the conclusion that I can not play above 30-60 whitout
being
cheated. Casey agrees as I am sure you do to.

I do not want ot be cheated and I do not want to make a living palying
30-60. Playing tournaments for monetary reasons is of course out of the

question. Therefore I have to make a living doing something else.

As I told you over the phone there is a couple of great busines
oppurtunities in Sweden. I believe that a profit could be made from
minimum
$200K up to even $1.5 million.

I sure would like to meet to discuss these business oppurtunities.
Casey
said that it would be hard to meat you since you have to be careful. I
totally understand this. I could have been paid by some one to try to
dig
you out. I told Casey that I had been in contact with you. Send him an
e-mail and ask him about me.

Hi Russ

I feel a little bit guilty for not replying sooner. I have been on a
short
holiday. I will order chips and cards when I am done with my emails.

I own a hotel here together with my brother and father. It is not
central or
fancy but clean and neat. I can get you single bedrooms for $25/night
including breakfast. If you want to stay very central the price is
around
$125/night. It is better to stay at our hotel and spend the extra money
on
taxi or renting a car. Do you need 3 rooms?

I expect you to show up here July 12th.

Hello Russ,

I'm a swedish journalist at Expressen, Swedens second biggest
newspaper, that would like to get in touch with you. Is this the right
adress for corresponding with you?

Best regards,

Emma Boëthius

Russ,

Ken Lennard has made quite a name for himself in Sweden since the
events you are posting about. He has been a commentator on national TV
for pokershows. He has been chief editor of a swedish pokermagazine. He
was president in the swedish poker association. Currently he is a
consultant to a govenmental run gambling company. He also has a weekly
column in swedens biggest newspaper. Basically he's the most well known
poker personality in Sweden due to his presence one way or another in
just about everything related to poker in Sweden last 3 years. He has
a pretty cocky and yapping style which has split people in two camps.
The ones who can't stand him and the ones who think he's quite the
"player".

Threads started on swedish pokerforums about your claims has been
deleted by mods. No articles has been written in the newspapers. Seems
like everything is hushed down. If your claims are true and it comes
out in the open in newspapers etc he has a LOT to lose as have other
(non cheating) people involved in the swedish pokerindustry. It would
be nothing but a BIG scandal and a setback to the swedish pokerboom.
That's probably why everything posted about it has been deleted. Or
because there actually isn't anything to this story and it's all
fabricated. Who knows. The emails you have posted and the details in
them are quite appaling to say the least.

Have you had further contacts with the journalist from Expressen. Did
she shy away from writing anything? By the way, that paper is the most
fearsome competitor to the newspaper Lennard writes for.

Do you have even more emails to post. Could you put up the recorded
phone conversations on pokermafia.com ?

I have many more emails to phone. I have phone records, as has he. I
have two others that flew to Stockholm with me to cheats ERIC123 and
three or four others. He and I picked the other guys up. We played
online in his apartment. He flew to the US later that year, and spent
two weeks in the Dallas area. His credit card and passport would verify
all this.

We were in the attack on his hotel/motel, where we drilled a hole for
the camera lenses and equipment. We tested the audio, we tested the
video. A major Swedidsh tournament was being played. At that time Ken
was short of money, owed some player about 50,000 Euro's and couldn't
get anyone to the game.

We drilled the hole on a second floor room. The hotel/motel only has
two floors. We did it on an end room and set the table up.

Obviously, if someone wanted this checked, all they'd have to do is
check passports, the dates, the credit credit cards.

Last, why in the world would three cheats fly to Stockholm in the
winter or late fall, with NO RECORD of where they stated? We stated at
Ken's hotel.
