Message: [QUOTE="mange, post: 908845, member: 20602"] Hey Cardschaters, Recently, I was sent a picture of a "Screen Shot" of one hand in a Tourney at the PokerStars Poker site. The susposed "ScreenShot" displayed Five Aces on the Board. I sent PokerStars a copy of the picture and ask if it was a legit pic or not. They indicated that they had seen it before, and it was definitely a Fake picture. Here is a copy of the corresponance between me and PokerStar Support. I have a copy if anyone is interested.
