MSNBC reports that an employee of Absolutepoker.com hacked the system to allow him to see other players’ hole cards. The employee purportedly went on a major winning streak earning somewhere between $400,000 and $700,000 in very short order.

Apparently he was too chicken to spend the money, and when he got caught, he said he was simply trying to prove a point; that it could be done. The parent compeny to Absolutepoker.com is promising a full refund to anyone affected by this scheme.
