Absolutely not.
And this really is where you sort of 'get what you pay for' in hiring very good attorneys. Since he is not charged with a drug offense, and drugs were not a part of this case in anyway that should be the easiest stipulation for a lawyer like these guys to get removed. Simply because it wasn't a function of the case, at all whatsoever.
Had they of busted him for marijuana also, or he had prior drug convictions MAYBE ( not even sure if then) but no way he gets random drug UA's as a part of probation for a gaming offense. I mean its technically possible but with his type of attorneys that would be a major fuck up, and with Micon, just setting him up to fail adventually.

Bryan Adam Micon is now a convicted felon and must register his current address within 48 hours with the Las Vegas Metro Police, failure to do so is a misdemeanor under Nevada law.
I think all convicted felons had to carry a pink card with them at all times, that had the offense they were charged with and if you were visiting or live in Nevada, you must go down to the police department and give them the address that you are staying at.
If you don't and you are pulled over by the police, they take you to jail.
How long before Micon fucks up and goes back to jail/prison?
From the VegasInc article:
I'm sure they will be watching Micon closely over the next four months.His sentencing is scheduled for Nov. 3.

Possible cheating on SWC. I bet micon is very happy one of the posts mentions the guy e-mailed micon.

You fail to understand one thing even IF I lose a wipo or udrp you will lose a case in US court, that simple. It cost me nothing to defend my friend is one of the best domain dispute lawyers anywhere. $1k is far from fair man. Will you come back and explain to a US court you should have the name? I mean think big picture Bryan, you could lose it all over what? Any way bottom line 150 btc or go ahead and file, this will be fun and great exposure for you when I halt the decision if I lost and media starts. Furthermore who the hell is it in higher limits who sit there and rape people. You know what, time for a blog, domain is not for sale.

the question of hackable is really no longer appropriate. is it possible it got hacked? sure. but at this point occams razor would suggest someone got phished and the attacker piggy backed in.
providing of course you discard the more obvious occams razor about an 'insider threat', which is a whole lot more likely.

Drex is the better 2-7 player than me, but I'll give it a shot.
For those of you that don't know, in 2-7 triple draw, you are trying to make the lowest possible 5-card hand (23457, no flush), and you have three drawing rounds to improve your hand.
In addition to attempting to avoid flushes and straights (which are terrible for obvious reasons), you also need to avoid pairs. If you finish with a pair in your hand, there is a good chance you have the worst hand.
Regarding the drawing, that can be a giveaway that your hand is weak. That is, if you "stand pat" and don't draw anything, you either like your hand or are trying to fool your opponent into thinking you like your hand. If you are drawing something like 3 cards, then your hand is obviously bad, and it's rare that all 3 cards will combine to make your hand good.
A common strategy in 2-7 triple draw is to hammer your opponent who is drawing a lot, assuming that he isn't likely to improve to like his hand much, and you can bet him off his hand without making much yourself. This is the holdem equivalent to betting when checked to, but with an additional dimension.
Going back to what this guy was saying....
He complained of the following (I will refer to his opponent has "the cheater", even though cheating hasn't been proven yet):
1) His friend, who had a pair of 8s after the third draw, tried to bluff the cheater. The cheater called him with a pair of 6s (a bad hand), which was shocking. Then the cheater again called his friend bluffing with 8s, this time holding a pair of 7s. So not only did the cheater call twice while holding a pair, but both times he called with a pair that was slightly lower (i.e. better) than the guy bluffing him.
2) John Locke (the accuser) noticed his opponent was hyper-aggressive, but oddly got super passive or foldy whenever John made a hand, no matter how many cards he drew. In one case, John drew 3 cards and the cheater just drew 1. John lucked out and improved to 2357x on his first draw (a great hand at this point, but his opponent should assume he is super weak), and tried to check-raise. Oddly the cheater checked back despite only drawing 1. Any good/aggressive player is auto-betting there in position when his opponent draws 3 and he only draws 1 card.
3) In another spot, John came within 2 spots of 23457 after the second draw after drawing two cards, with the cheater only drawing 1. John checked, and the cheater checked -- again peculiar for an aggressive player. When John bet the river after lucking into making 23457, the cheater folded.
4) When both players were drawing 1 card (referred to as a "1-1 spot"), the cheater was always getting hyperaggressive if John paired up. In one case, the cheater value bet king high after John's hand worsened by drawing one and getting an ace.
John has over 2,000 posts on 2+2. I think I believe that he was being cheated there.
The question is who did it, and how.
While it's possible that a screengrabber trojan was installed onto the victims' computers (thereby not being SWC's fault), it's also very possible that the cheater cracked the system or the RNG in some way.
For SWC management to stonewall them on the results of the investigation is bullshit, and highly suspicious.
I could see the trojan thing as a possibility, on one of the players computers, but apparently the cheater was cleaning house on a lot of different players. Cracking the RNG? Possible, but highly unlikely. SWC not sharing the results of the investigation....pretty much a dead give away this was an inside job.

I think its a bit exotic for this scenario, that said its not necessary to know the seed in all cases.
