Online poker cheat
Online poker cheating differs in many ways from casino poker cheating. There are four principal areas of concern:
Minor cheating -- with friends telling each other hole cards on the phone or messenger.
Inept collusion -- where stupid partners collude together in ways so obvious that they are discovered quickly.
Expert collusion -- where competent people collude in an effective way, including "self-collusion" where one person plays in the same game on two different accounts.
The best tool the card rooms have when it comes to cheating detection is the eternal vigilance of honest players.
Unlike land based casinos where hard evidence is difficult to come up with, where eyewitness suspicions and distant cameras are normally about all there is to go on, with online cardrooms honest players don't need to provide evidence.
They only need to provide suspicion. In other words, online card rooms have at their disposal algorithmic red flags as well as honest player red flags. One incident may seldom tell a whole story, but one incident can serve as a red flag that uncovers a fairly sophisticated cheating web.
Should you worry about cheating? Probably not as much as you might think. At the higher limits, there may be more chance of passive and even active cheating, but by that point, you should know that if you're losing at a table- it's time to go. Don't fret too much over what you cannot control.
Again, if you still absolutely think that whatever site you are going to is cheating you out of your money, do yourself a favor and leave that site!
