So Seth Yates ran 3 SB pools on twitter. Took 3 K from all different people via PayPal and Venmo and never paid out the winners. He hasn’t tweeted since Super Bowl Sunday but has been active on RG as early as yesterday. I wasn’t a victim but he just screwed 3 K from members of the DFS community and maybe some people in this very forum. He was an Active poster on RG and also wrote a few columns in the past. Anyone hear anything? The guy use to tweet everyday all day and now nothing. 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Can someone who has a lot of free time, track his losses so we know when the 3k runs out? I’d like to personally congratulate him when the money he stole runs out and is given back to DK. Basically ruined his reputation and name just to lose for 30 days.
Pretty sure he went through three grand of blow on super bowl night alone. Seth is a lost soul in need of much help.

Just got out of rehab. What’s been up?
Oh man this thread is gonna get going again.
Someone hacked his account
That’s what the account is tweeting now and it makes sense.
I’m sure someone spent a lot of time trying to hack his accounts given the amount of time people spent digging into his history.

SethayatesDFSOh. Hey
^^^^^^^^^^^^
So did RusstheBus26 get paid by these guys? ^^^
Possible it could be Seth. Has nothing left to lose. His life is likely shit. Wife and kids probably gone and he is obviously just a drunk or druggy at this point. Cheap thrill on Twitter is probably all he has left. That and $1 NBA contests to try and win $4 for a case of PBR.
Its pretty disgusting what is being done to his twitter now. Whoever is behind it should be ashamed and embarrased
He’s faking his own page being hacked. Next will be they got his paypal and spent the 3,000.00
They made everyone whole i assume. Maybe this guy can hack his PayPal and see if any funds are left.
There is no doubt it is Seth. He wants the attention, and he saw this thread was slowing down. This guy has some mental problems. If I can remember, when he started playing DFS, all he did was post on the forums and tweet all the DFS Pros to try and get attention. I still have no clue how he got all the followers. He won one NFL Preason tournament and all of a sudden he is an expert.
Welp, his Twitter shenanigans didn’t last long, already lost steam and nobody is responding. Had to be disappointing for him!
Whether it’s him or not it’s getting bizarre. The way he’s tweeting it seems like it’s him or someone with worse problems.
His tweets have taken a weird turn now…rambling about Iraq and other things
Drunk, high or probably both
He used to tweet from Twitter for iPhone.
Now it’s Twitter for Android.
So either…
A) He did get hacked
B) Dude was hard up for cash and sold his iPhone
C) Burner Twitter meltdown
D) B & C
Ahhhhh, this is a very good point!

$10 and I will release them
This fake hack is just a long con for someone to send Seth 10$ to bet on the Detroit Pistons at 300-1 to win the nba championship
He gone

So long 15 minutes of shame. Hoping for the best for your wife and kids. Hopefully, at least they can live a better life.
