Mike Postle, the man accused of cheating his way through the Stones Live poker podcasts, now seems to be avoiding formal legal service in the lawsuit brought against him by nearly 100 defendants. The case accuses Mr. Postle of cheating during dozens of cash-game podcasts aired over the past two years.

On January 5, 2020, plaintiffs’ counsel Maurice “Mac” B. Verstandig filed an affidavit of service declaring “summons returned executed”. This was accompanied by a sworn supplement describing the circumstances under which numerous attempts at serving the summons had been stymied. During late December 2019, Verstandig’s firm had retained a process server to deliver the legal notice to Mike Postle. However, the server was unable to reach Postle on five separate days: December 19, 22, 24, 29, and 30.

Following the unsuccessful attempts, Verstandig stated in an affidavit: “On Friday, January 3, 2020, at 9:21 pm local time, I approached the residence…in Antelope, California, where I understand Michael L. Postle to reside… I interchangeably knocked on the door and rang the door bell, announcing my presence, for a period of approximately eight (8) minutes, during which time I observed lights to be on the House, I observed a Lincoln MKX …to be parked in the House’s driveway, and I heard noises emanate from inside of the House.”
