Pokerstars has refunded me $500+ over the last year or so.

I've gotten emails like this......

PokerStars has become aware of a group of players who were working together in our Double or Nothing (DONs) tournaments to the detriment of other players. You were involved in at least one tournament with these players and as a result you may have been adversely affected.

The players' accounts were closed and their funds frozen pending a thorough investigation, which is now complete. Those players have now been barred from PokerStars.

In a case such as this it is our policy to confiscate the colluders' winnings or balances and to distribute them to the players affected by their actions in as fair a way as possible. To confirm your credit, go to the 'Cashier' screen and click the 'History' button. Your share will be shown "ADMIN CREDIT", followed by the amount of the credit.

The integrity of the games at PokerStars is of paramount importance to us and we will not abide cheating or collusion in our games. We work hard to police our games and prevent such instances. In the rare cases where collusion has actually occurred, we make sure that any players affected are compensated appropriately.

Thank you for your continued play here on PokerStars. Please do not hesitate to let us know any time we can be of help.

Kind Regards,

PokerStars Game Security

if you aren't too good at poker and play online, u will have no shot at winning. (at even mid-stakes) if thats what you meant i agree. Was playing on cake other day trying to get a heads-up tables and i just joined the site few days ago, already no one will play me, i sit at their table and they sit out i guess they are all waiting for a few retarded whales

its not that no one will play you , they dont have enough players

My experience the drunker one gets the more they get robbed. Once seen a drunk guy get decked stacked all night (he'd get quad kings and get beat with quad aces.) Stuff as bad as that doesn't happen if you are sober..

The types of cheating OP mentions are not as common as you think. Collusion and marked cards are the only two that are semi likely, even in those two cases they are usually not executed very well.

There was a big scandal involving the DONs on PS involving players from china colluding... the new fifty50s sngs are a response to this...

[smitch124]

I'm not sure they even have to focus on the play, if people end up in the same game more than is normal it raises a red flag I believe.

[pokernut9999]

Always watch a game a long time before ever sitting down to play.

[cant call it]

Honest tea is the best policy
Unless you like coffee

[GELATINOUS CUBE]

sure.

when 4 of the 8 guys at the table are fakos that work for the casino.

You might win a few, but the money goes back to the casino thru the fakos or the dealer.

This is why I don't play double/nothing.. Sometimes I feel like the entire world is conspiringagainst me..

[dj_destroyer]

If you play at Titan, Bodog, UB, Pinny, or PartyPoker... I'm taking your money on a regular basis and suggest you find somewhere else. That's all I will say.

[horja1]

Everyone I play with is usually carrying a gun.

Seems to discourage cheating.

Are you sure you are playing poker and not rulette ... russian maybe ..?
