 Cheating at on-line poker |

Cheating at Online Poker!
This is being sold as “No Rules Poker” on the internet.
It has a beautifully written ad which stopped me in my tracks when I read it. It told how I could see my opponents cards, just as I see my cards on the screen. What a deal that is. I will be able to know what my opponents hole cards are! I read the ad again (it was quite long). I’ve been around too long to believe what the ad said, and moved on.
A few days later I came across a forum post of a customer of the above ad. He was so angry he posted the whole damn package for anyone’s viewing. And boy, did I laugh.
I read it in less than an hour. It is such bullsh**. Let me give you a summary of it's contents:
Part one: pertains to "collusion". Nothing I didn't know already. The author is talking about you and your buddy playing the same SNG and are on the phone telling each other their hole cards.
Part two included some info on a Poker bot that you can buy somewhere else. I have no idea if that idea is realistic. I did go to the site and read another well written, and long, ad on poker-bots. A poker bot is a program that will allow a “robot” to play, and win, without you being there. Hmmmmm!.
Part three was some 1st class real bullsh** regarding "linguistics". He gives examples of using the chat to influence what your opponent does. Totally bogus.
Part Three: pertains to installing a program, and get it onto your opponents computer. You have to, at the minimum get his password, user name, ISP, etc.; and I'm not sure if the rest of the computer oriented stuff would work if you could even get that info.
He gives a money back guarantee. I can't see anyone being happy or finding this useful.
What an entrepreneur the author is though. He's written an advertisement that grabs people's attention. I'm sure he's made a bundle of money.
I'm glad I didn't buy. I would have been requesting my money back. How long do you think I would have to wait?????
I'm embarrassed that I gave this ad the attention I did.
I’d like to hear from others on their thoughts/interaction regarding the above product.

Yea, well this is the last thing that will be said about cheating online poker and it will stick!!!
21Ace doesn't support collusion, hacking, using of bots, or any other forum of online cheating not mentioned above... Those admittedly using or are found out to be using or doing such actions WILL be recommended for banishment from 21ace, 100% of my recommendations for a banishment have been carried out...
Further more the major sites such as party and poker stars for sure are aware about this and take counter measurements to fight against it, I e-mailed them personally about it!!! I got long e-mails back explain in detail that they are aware of the "bots", it's pretty damn easy to spot collusion as well, I have never reported anyone but if I suspected it I would in a heart beat!
As for Hacking good luck with that, if caught you'll be prosecuted for federal electronic crimes... Have fun with that, ohh and by the way, stars and party can see if anyone has hacked there code...
So my Final thought and that will be all, don't cheat!!! Why the hell would you cheat when you have the material out there to beat the game straight up? I have given many useful posts about how to improve your game! There are books you can buy and read... I even sometimes will give advice on how to play a hand as long as it doesn't sound like a bad beat story or is bluntly obvious where the hand plays it's self... If the hand contains marginal plays including fold equality and pot equality I’d be more then happy to have a discussion about it. Cheating just hurts you more in the long run; a cheater will sooner or later be caught...
