Serves em right to lose their money. Serves the cheaters right to get caught. Now someone revoke the sites' licenses!]]>Dec 1st 2008 4:35PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/http://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/Dec 1st 2008 2:36PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/http://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/--------------------------------------------------------
It's illegal to play poker for cash anywhere it's illegal to have a brick-and-mortar casino, and in some Indian casinos that don't have non-blackjack table games in their state gaming contracts.

Second, the guy didn't get away with it. Everyone who lost money to him got it back.

Did you READ the article, or just the headline? Two people got caught (resulting in $7.1M in refunds) out of "close to $20 million" (that experts know of). That is not "everyone"!]]>Dec 1st 2008 2:44PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/http://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/
Before trying to make others look stupid, take a closer look at your own mirror.

No honey. Should I explain why or you will reach out and put your thinking cap on so you can answer that yourself.

WoW you can quote the article. Too bad you dont read as good as you quote. Allow me:
"Player or group of players on the site UltimateBet.com launched a similar cheating campaign in early 2008"
"Catania delivered his findings: cheaters took their prey for close to $20 million over the course of several years"

Now player and group of players are different things. Also 20 million over several years and 6.1 million since early 2008 are two different things.
I understand that the basement where you were raised does not offer an education suitable for understanding by imbreed such as yourself so i offer you an advice. Get off the computer. I am still amazed you were allowed to make a comment.

and steven...your comment is completley "idiotic".

Lastly, Poker is NOT gambling to educate those of you who do not know a thing about poker.]]>Dec 1st 2008 3:39PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/http://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/Dec 1st 2008 3:50PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/http://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/

Many people think it is rigged anyway, there is some speculation called the Poker Action Flop Theory. The idea is that the online poker rooms deliberately set up hands to create large pots, with outcomes that favor the risk taking players. This is done to level the playing field, giving the average players a chance against the top players on the site.

Here is a link to the article. http://www.thedoverpro.com/poker-action-flop.htm

This of course is not to mention player collusion, players who use multiple accounts, and players teaming at the tables.

Most online poker sites have no true regulation compared with USA legal casino poker operations, just another reason it should be legalized in the USA, then it could be regulated and taxed.

Here is a link to a group trying to do just that: http://pokerplayersalliance.org/

Good luck!]]>Dec 1st 2008 4:01PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/http://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/Dec 1st 2008 5:25PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/http://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/Dec 1st 2008 5:53PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/http://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/Dec 1st 2008 4:26PMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/http://www.switched.com/2008/12/01/online-poker-cheating-costly-unpoliceable/Dec 1st 2008 4:57PM
