Another Cheating Storm
Many will be disappointed to hear yet another tale of unethical behaviour. It’s only a few months since Perkins ranted about cheating in another private game.
There he found out that rich amateurs were hiring elite professionals, such as Dan Jungleman Cates to ghost for them.
This time around Perkins and Dan Bilzerian are complaining that Jean-Robert Bellande behaved unethically by not declaring that he was backing at least two of the players in the game.
willing to sully reputations after witnessing one 500k pot of 22 vs AQ aipf… (neither of us were in that pot). I once played a pot dbl that side w 35hh aipf. not cool @DanBilzerian and your 40m followers. not cool. pic.twitter.com/y7xCB12o9c

Bellande took to Twitter to complain that he was having the worst week after losing more than $400,000 and then his friend Bilzerian turned on him.
loosing 400k+ this week (only 80 in that game) and having my friend, @DanBilzerian turn on me = rough week. funny thing is, i think those guys were only showing off to impress him. i’m super bummed right now. (and would still vouch for that game). #brokeandbummed

Perkins Finds a Difference of Opinion
What happened next might surprise a few readers.
Bill Perkins is undoubtedly a man of integrity. In fact he recently offered to pay legal fees for those being targeted by Mike Postle in a revenge lawsuit.
Being a man who thinks this way he was probably expecting a more conclusive result from a poll he posted about transparency.
He asked the Twittersphere if Bellande should have informed the other players that he was backing them financially.
You’re the host of a poker game you get paid time/rake and you also play in the game. You have 50 percent of 2 or more players in a sometimes 8/7/9 player game. As the host should you make non staked players aware of the economics? #Poker

Amazingly more than 25% refused to back him.
Surely such a big chunk of the poker community doesn’t condone shady, deceptive behaviour?
High stakes reg Shaun Deeb was a little on the fence about it all.
“Depends if host also plays in games. These things are super common in every HS games surprised you don’t expect this in every game bp,”
Andreas Froehli was quite clear that he thought it was out of order.

“Imagine raking $, being a winner at the game and staking the other winners in the game and everyone being okay with it,”
What Made Perkins Suspicious?
When we get rumours such as this we’re often left wondering how it all came to light.
It’s unlikely that Jean-Robert Bellande made a public announcement during play, so something weird must have transpired.
There was talk of wacky play and an investigation but we know little else unfortunately.
Update 2: Expert has reviewed equipment, done interviews , etc and is confident(high 90s) there was no cheating, the only questionable issue is the backing multiple players in a game. This is what lead to the conclusion of accuser(plus wacky play) . @Chad_Power@DanBilzerian
