Tokwiro Enterprises, owner and operator of UltimateBet.com and AbsolutePoker.com announced today that it investigation regarding allegations of unfair play on UB's web site are finally over. Tokwiro amassed comprehensive evidence including the IP addresses, procedures, strategies as well as transfer and withdrawal records as well as names related with the player accounts involved in dishonestly viewing the card information. The results of Tokwiro's internal investigation have been submitted to the Kahnawake Gaming Commission and its team of auditors which will run an independent inquiry.

As a result of the investigation, Tokwiro has identified 19 accounts and 88 related usernames involved in the scam, including the suspects named in the investigation details posted by Tokwiro in May 29^th, 2008 and July 8^th, 2008. According to the investigation, there are no new perpetrators involved, only new usernames, which were changed several times in order to avoid detection. The complete list of usernames implicated in the cheating scandal was turned over to the KGC, and the Company does not expect to come across with more usernames.

"Make no mistake: our management team is outraged that this cheating occurred on our site through illicit software placed on the UB servers prior to our purchasing UltimateBet. Tokwiro is aggressively pursuing legal avenues of redress in order to protect and compensate our players and the business. Rest assured that we will release more information to the poker community and to the public at large as we enforce our and our players' rights. With respect to refunds to the affected players, we are continuing our analysis in order to determine the refund amounts. We will move forward with another round of refunds in the weeks ahead. We thank the poker community for its invaluable contributions to this investigation and assure it that we remain committed to fully investigating any claims of fraud on our site." said Paul Leggett, Tokwiro's Chief Operating Officer.

The investigation discovered that the person behind the scam logged into the client’s account using a software to view hole cards, then the perpetrator used the information gained to play using other accounts, which thereby benefited from the cheating. The money won was then moved around and off the site in an intricate web of player-to-player transfers and withdrawals. The investigation also revealed that this software was installed on the Ultimate Bet servers before Tokwiro acquired the online poker site in October 2006.

"We cannot over-emphasize the fact that Tokwiro and its entire management team had no knowledge of the illicit software until it was revealed by our investigation; and no one associated with Tokwiro was involved in the cheating scheme at any point." Mr. Leggett said.
