This site is about how cheating in poker started and how they want you to keep quiet. As always we appreciate feedback from our visitors.
Keep it Quiet
Casino's and online sites always down play the amount of cheating in poker. They keep coming with the same rhetoric about cheating in poker and how it's highly exaggerated.
One thing casino's and online sites have plenty of, money. With an issue such as cheating poker, wouldn't you use your money to down play the amount? These places know they can't stop cheating in poker, so they do their best trying to negate it exists.
In fact, the casino's won't even cooperate with you when this issue comes up. It's usually the players who catch the cheating in poker, when it's the casino's or online sites job.
I've always wondered, what becomes of the money that's confiscated from those who've been cheating in poker? You certainly can't believe these people are caught the first time they begin cheating in poker? With some people, I guess you can..
Cheating in poker is not a disease, it's an epidemic, especially in high stakes. The big news, it's not only the players who are cheating in poker.
Recently, Absolute Poker (online site) was caught cheating in poker by having employees looking at the hole cards of players and relaying the information back to their players. Not to be out done, Pokerstars players, not management caught some cheating in poker on their online site and the person who won their largest online tournament was disqualified.
No reason was given, nor how it was done or anything else. Why do the players have to catch those cheating in poker? Then, we have our next incident in cheating in poker. We have the winner of Full Tilt's (online site) largest tournament also being disqualified for cheating in poker. Not bad, the top three largest sites all get caught cheating in poker.
And it wasn't just the players on the sites involved, but employees also in this cheating in poker.
I have saved the best for last. Brick and mortar casinos and MSNBC gambling consultant Steve Forte was recently arrested in New Jersey for cheating in poker. Steve Forte was also one of three people placed in charge of analyzing cheating in poker. Talk about the foxes guarding the hen house?
Six months later and no one has heard one thing about the Steve Forte incident at the Borgata Hotel and casino in New Jersey. Those who doubt there is a Pokermafia had better open their eyes.
Poker Unchecked, my first book is now available.
It can be purchased on any of the following sites and perhaps a hundred more.
