Friedman used Twitter to communicate his dissatisfaction with the world, stating the following:
"Isaac Haxton and Justin Bonomo share and switch accounts often. Was playing random guy and looked up his stats. Identical to Hax. Haxton knows I don't want to play him head up. So scummy. Beware of their scummy tactics. They have been doing this to me for years. No more."
Isaac Haxton
Friedman also tries to explain why he is so sure that the two use each other's accounts:
"XXTRMSK8RX was super easy to bluff, beat him for a lot. The very next day its impossible to bluff him and he beats me for a lot, no problem right. But then I look up the stats and its identical to Haxton. Haxton has a UB account right now, but he didn't play on that account. It's no coincidence that I just ran into Haxton at Panorama Towers and told him I've been playing only on UB. I told him 'I won't play you though.' XXTRMSK8RX is for sure Haxton and the dramatic style change is indicative of when I played 'zeejustin' on Full Tilt. Same exact thing happened. Playing zeejustin was easy at first on Full Tilt then there was a dramatic style change and he beat me for a lot. That was Haxton beating me. I give credit to Haxton for being a great player, but I don't want to play him heads up. He knows this. Yet he finds ways to play me."
Soon enough, Justin Bonomo reacted on Twitter, sending Prahlad a short response and a link directing to Twoplustwo, where he offers Friedman a challenge to prove his innocence:
"To Prah I issue a live battleship style heads up challenge. 3+ tables, minimum stakes 25/50. If you agree to play 10,000+ hands of 50/100, I will personally fly to LA to play you in person. If that number is too large, I offer you a few other options. You are welcome to stay in my apartment in Las Vegas (guest master bedroom, all yours) if it means you will play me HU. Naturally that is a lot to ask, so instead you could have a mutually trusted friend sweat the match from my apartment . . . Prahlad must either accept this challenge, or give both of us a public apology."
Prahlad has not yet responded, but we are eagerly awaiting the outcome of this newest poker scandal, and we are also waiting for comments from Haxton himself.
