Hintze signs with publishing house for book on the Absolute Poker & UBPoker cheating debacles
Given the abiding interest in the multi-million dollar Absolute Poker & UltimateBet online poker cheating scandals among millions of poker players around the world, a forthcoming book will likely achieve significant sales.
The book is to be authored by Haley Hintze, a well-informed & tenacious investigative journalist who for some time has probed deeply into the issues & the companies & personalities involved, often uncovering new developments & publishing detailed facts on her blog.
The extensive publicity on Absolute Poker & UBPoker following Black Friday's indictments naming founding figures of the companies will additionally add to the appeal of such an independent evaluation of the issue.
According to an announcement Monday, publishing house Dimat Enterprises Inc., has teamed with Hintze on the as yet untitled book, with a release date tentatively set for the northern hemisphere Fall this year.
Hintze has assembled a deep library of documents including e-mails, taped conversations, & whistleblower interviews, which detail the inside secrets & alleged cover-ups involving the companies .
"This story will show the corrupt, shady dealings of two major online poker rooms âEUR‛ which later joined as one -- & how they did everything they could to prevent the true stories of the cheating from reaching the poker-playing public.," the announcement promises.
Dimat is no stranger to poker, & has published an impressive list of publications in collaboration with top writers on the subject.
Making a similar announcement on her blog, Hintze wrote this week: "I'd like to thank Matthew [Hilger of Dimat Enterprises] for offering me the opportunity to craft a single, comprehensive tale of the UltimateBet & Absolute Poker scandals, even as events connected to these continue to surprise us nearly every day."
