How was this promo being exploited? I don't see how, considering it all depended on getting certain hands. How do you cheat at that?

I can answer that. The really cool gentleman I talked to considered it at least partly his own fault for running the promo too long, allowing people to figure out how it could be abused. He has such a low opinion of professional gamblers (as it stands now) he expects them to try to cheat, and takes it as a personal failing if they get away with it. I love this guy. I just can't figure out why he's so nice in the face of this kind of behavior.
It makes me nauseous to think that this is what they think of us. "All a bunch of crooks". Is that a label you are happy with?
It's going to be up to the honest gamblers to keep an eye on the bad apples. It's time we start policing our own.
You are correct, they could have prosecuted and they didn't, they only 86ed the ones they caught. They are being really good sports about this, but they won't keep taking it on the chin forever.
Let's all show them we appreciate their attitude, and do unto others as we would have them do unto us!!!
