Scamming online poker rooms

[msauvm]

Here it is..tell me how many of you have done this or thought about it.

Get 4 of your friends or more in the same card room at pokerroom.com or another online poker room.

Open a chat room on aol or instant messanger ..
and just ROUND heads... It would be so easy.

Who thinks this gets done all the time????

It gets done often.

All you need is 1 player to increase your winning % by at LEAST 20%. For instance, the 2 of you can force other players to fold on almost EVERY single hand. Here is something to look for to determine if it is happening to you. At bigbetpoker, I caught at least 5-8 people doing this sort of shit!

Lets say that we have a game with about 5 people. By the way, the fewer players, the better for this sort of help! Well I noticed that 2 players almost ALWAYS stayed in on the same hand! Then when they would force someone to fold, the hand WOULD NEVER go to the last card or at least one player WOULD always fold so they didnt have to show the bluff hand or better yet then they wouldnt have to show either hand!

Watch closely for people who are raising the hell out of the game and then ALL OF A SUDDEN, one guy doesnt call a small bet! They bet this way for 2 reasons. First is the most important reason, not to dislcose that one or both didnt have shit in the hole! The second reason is to not lose anymore money in the rake.


Also keep in mind that some players are COMP players where they get a % of the rake and get paid to keep people at the table!!

If a bet is not called then the bet never actually goes into the pot, therefor the house doesn't get to rake a % of this last bet.

It happened many times but unfortunatelly for the same reason is getting harder to pull up the scam without being noticed

I posted something about this a few months ago at a different poker site. Some posters got angry as they took it that I was claiming the site was crooked. Not at all. It was obvious that the players at the table were working me by their bets and subsequent folds. I lost $200 in no time. I am certainly not the greatest poker player in the world, but I dont suck at it either. I lost $200 within an hour ( playing $2 tables ). Havent played since because I know there is way too much shit like that going on. Some people are getting rich doing that.

YOU HAVE TO BE A REAL FUKKING ASSHOLE TO PLAY ONLINE POKER OR ANY CASINO GAME. THEY ARE FUKKIN RIGGED!!!!!! STAY AWAY!!!

I find at full table ring games (10 players) you often don't find any skilled colluders. I am still able to easily win. When you get to shorthanded games 10/20 and up it can become a concern but all in all not a big deal. If you think there are good colluders in a 1/2 or 2/4 game then you guys are joking yourselves.

Tekker do not play guy poker.

Bet sports only!!

 

[DENIRO]

tekari is right

theres no collusion on those lower limits

the more hidden cards the better it is to work together

the best game is omaha hi/lo

each player gets 4 hidden cards

if 1 player locks the low and the other high, they can trap the other players
