I am a recreational player. I like to play poker online primarily for the fun of it. I like the competition and intellectual challenge. I play a lot of Freerolls but I also play “ring games” for real money as well. I do make small ($20-$50) deposits from time to time so that I can play in the “ring games” and buy-in tournaments.
The problem is that I am getting solicited by emails from this fellow in Canada that is going by the name of Ken Chan to buy his “Cheating” materials and software. He claims in his emails and web site (cheat-at-poker .com) that a player with his wares can see his opponents’ hole cards during the course of play. He goes on to say that his wares work on some particular poker sites and then specifically names Royal Vegas, Party Poker, Pacific Poker, Intertops, UltimateBet, Paradise Poker, Empire Poker and Ladbrokes as sites that his software works on.
This upset me more than interested me. I asked him some straight questions and did not get straight answers, so I asked the Poker Rooms and here’s a couple of things that they said;
Paradise Poker:> The claims made by this software are absolute rubbish. We have been made aware of this software before and even tested it and I can say hand on heart and without doubt that it does not work.
Ultimate Bet: > Please rest assured that there is no possible way that this information is true. I have revised this person's site myself, we are aware of what he states, but please be confident that it is a scam. We know exactly what he claims and there is no possibility that someone will cheat on our site by purchasing something from that webpage.
Now I checked some very knowledgeable & experienced online players and some said that it might be possible for players to see others hole cards during the hand – BUT – they would be Only seeing other players’ hole cards that have the same software running. Kind of like Cheaters trying to cheat other Cheaters. Beyond that, They also said that nearly All Poker rooms are constantly looking for collusion among players – so – if they tried to work together they would be quickly discovered and busted.
I’m still looking into this, but if anyone has any further information it would be good to share that knowledge with others and help Keep Our Poker Clean!
