Chance Kornuth Calls for Poker Blacklist Amid Cheating Scandal
Chance Kornuth has backed calls for a poker “blacklist” to deal with cheats and scammers, claiming that the current situation is “inadequate and unacceptable” in light of this week’s extraordinary revelations. Kornuth stated that the current system of banning cheaters without exposing them is inadequate and unacceptable.
Alex Foxen accused Ali Imsirovic of being a live and online cheat. Justin Bonomo backed Foxen's accusations and claimed that at least one other high stakes regular, believed to be Jake Schindler, was also banned at the same time as Imsirovic. Martin Zamani claimed that Bryn Kenney has also cheated in high stakes games.
Kornuth mentioned that he personally knows Jake Schindler and Ali Imsirovic were banned by GGPoker. Kornuth called for a boycott of major poker sites until an acceptable effort has been made to crack down on cheaters.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
