This time when I say "online scams" I don't mean from the casino side, but from the players side. On the web everybody has the ability to become someone else, even a phantom. It is no surprise that so many try to mess with the system when some succeed. I'll give you a small taste of this world of scam, but please, do not try this at home.
Combined Hands
Collusion - This scam is the most common there is, but also the less profitable. The scam is several players combine together (sometimes it is just one player with several connections) and eventually split the pot between themselves. There are a few set backs on this scam, first of all this kind of scam is possible on low bet games, so the jackpot isn't usually big. The second thing about this kind of scam is that the colluders sometimes turn on each other (when there are, in fact, several players and not just one).on this kind of scam the players usually lose more money on the scam then make money.
Too Lazy Cheating Yourself?
For low prices and low maintenance you get yourself software that will cheat for you!! Sound silly, I know, I mean if you're gonna cheat, at least have the decency do it yourself. But then again, if cheating is your thing, maybe decency is irrelevant. About the effectiveness of these cheating devises, I can only say that in this day and age, there are so many monitor and detectors that were made to eliminate these kinds of software. Because of that I think it is somewhat difficult to win a substantial amount of money. It probably possible to win some, but for that, what do you need a software for.
Cheating Software
New and improved software that helps you see the other players cards. I don't know what to say except-come on, you really believe this kind of software can exist and stay a secret in the meantime? Well' I don't, plus it would have killed online poker completely.
In Conclusion
I think it is not very fun to cheat in a game (unless it's a cheating game), but hey, maybe that's just me. Remember to have fun whatever you do.
