“Apology”, that Chris Ferguson addressed to poker communty after seven years raised some harsh comments. The conclusion is simple: Ferguson did more harm than good to his image by issuing the video. Here is how Daniel Negreanu commented Chris' words to PokerNews.

– Can you say exactly how you feel about what Ferguson said?

– It seems funny. Like if he was reading the text from a piece of paper or prompter. That was akward to watch. It makes me appreciate what Howard Lederer wrote in his letter. I felt he really felt sorry and took part of the responsibility for what happened. This video of Chris shows very little if any remorse. I kinda don't feel like the biggest shareholder, who said Ray Bitar would be best CEO, showed any sign of regret. It's also too late and too short of a comment really.

– Ferguson said he is looking forward to the day when whole Full Tilt Poker is told. What do you think of that?

– Well, I am sure that Chris Ferguson will do it one day, but Howard will tell us his version, Phil Gordon will have one too, as well as Phil Ivey and even Ray Bitar. The point is we will never know the whole truth. ALl we know is that they made the mess by not taking care about players.

You know, when Ferguson say that he “did all he could after Black Friday” it makes me laugh. We know he was hiding from the responsibility. No comment for years whatsowever and no proof that he did anything. There is evidence thoough that he blocked accounts to stop players from withdrawing money. We wll know who helped poker players and he is not one of these people.

– You think he was trying to buy players' forgiveness for WSOP?

– This is not really of any importance now. He was the biggest shareholder and if he wanted to say anything he should have done it a long time ago. Besides, an apology of any kind should start with “I am sorry guys..”

– How do you feel about him joining WSOP this year?

– He went there a year ago, so he will probably come to this WSOP, too. I don't think it should be banned. Howard can also be excused, but Russ Hamilton was cheating, so for him the admission should be forbidden completely. I don't mind if Ferguson or Lederer come, but if I was one of them I would be ashamed to arrive at the festival. Someone will ask again if Chris intends to apologise and we will hear another, stupid “what for?” from him.. Is he really so out of line to think 42-second video clip will make everything ok?

his apology felt like an automated response from his lawyer or a friend, didn't feel sincere at all, and really he should maybe a psychopath, hes not taking any blame, just saying sorry for x y z, theres 23 other letters.

Chris Ferguson showing no remorse leads one to believe he is a sociopath. What he did to people was something no online poker player will ever forget.
How he sleeps at night is beyond me

dunno about Ferguson but Lederer is definitely a sociopath from what I've seen

Also, not sure whats more of a crime: Ferguson's FT fraud or Negreanu's glorious Hair Plugs (as seen above)

That is not the behavior of a mere asshole, it's def something more. To do what they've done, you've got to be crazy in some form
