Hi everyone,

Have you ever met a card cheaters in real life poker?
If so, what did you do with them?
How did you punish them after exposure?

Or maybe someone has any stories related to this.
 
I remember Alec Torelli has been acused of angleshooting.it was a funny story check it on youtube .😉 .
 
I know a few guys at my local casino who somehow always manage to get on the same table (there are usually only 4 going) and they are best friends. I've complained but to no avail.
 
Hello, my name is Washington, (wsbar in Pokerstars), I already played with some cheaters, croupier who knew to give a pair of AA to whom he wanted, at the moment I could not do anything, I just stopped playing with the thieves.
 
I don't think I have ever encountered a card cheater in real life. Although maybe I have and just did not notice it and lost. Maybe there is someone who has tips for me on how to spot them?
 
We had a guy in a bar league that got caught cheating... at FREE BAR POKER! LOL. I knew and played with the guy but wasn't there the night he was caught.

It was self dealing bar poker, so he would hold the deck after he dealt the flop for example, and swish the corner edge of the cards with his thumb, in a downward motion I believe. Apparently someone stood behind him one night and saw while he was doing that he was allowing himslf to see the top few cards. He ended up confessing and everything once he was caught and was banned from the league. He never played in any of the local home cash games or anything before that(or after), so nothing bad happened to him à la street justice or anything.
 
Now, I'm imagining real cash games might have this issue. I had never though about it before. Thanks for share!

I guess if you suspect someone of cheating you just have to check it without him noticing and stop cheating. Good thing you just let him walk away😉
 
pokerstars is te purest rng of the rngs it uses physical things to make it random not just algorithm/software 🙂

Stay true to pokerstars and you wont find cheaters often at all! 🙂

ONLY SITE TO ACTIVELY FORCE YOU TO FILM YOURSELF PLAYING IF YOUR PLAY HISTORY SUGGESTS YOU ARE A BOT <33333333333

FOR LIVE POKER PS EVENTS THEY HAVE THE SINGLE BEST SECURITY AND POLICING OF CHEATERS IN GAMES. trust me on this, they use all camera angles and have expert body language as their staff (not allowed to play as they can read people so well)
 
I saw someone (who was not playing) walking around in the room and watching everyone's cards and tapping his friends shoulder when he would win
 
as I am a dealer in a clandestine poker room so to speak, it is very common to find that type of player and what is usually done is to prohibit the entry or if other players find it because it ends in fights (that happens when they play without a dealer and the shuffle goes from hand to hand), and once I saw that two players were saved 2 cards and each time you enter the hand they looked for the best hand with the 4 cards they had and they changed it, by the way they were playing holdem
 
so far I have not had the bad opportunity to meet any of these people, the live games I have only played with friends and family, often just play online and I do not think that in these games there is a trap lol.
 
I feel like card cheats in casinos now are very uncommon but I guess its very plausible. I guess I just dont suspect that ever.
 
I saw a playing dealer who looked at the next card in a deck, told him no to do that )

Iknow one interesting moment. There was one poker club in Kyiv for high-rollers and there was a technological cheating - RFID cards. The moment dealer shaffls cards program knows all combinations and who is the winner.

But it's very rare, so you can stay calm.

I have seen a few cheaters in live games.

One guy tried to get extra chips onto the table after he started winning a hand. He got banned for a year.

I saw a a big high roller from the Salon Prive come and play poker. The rule here is if you are both all in, you have to show your cards'. You don't you should be mucked ! This big shot told the pit boss to F-off, and refused to open his cards. Casino cheated everyone that day.


Saw another guy stealing chips out of the dealers tray. He was call 'long fingers'.
Banned for 2 years.

Some crazy Easter European guy pulled out a plastic gun at a table. Threatened someone with it. He got a life ban. He said to them 'come on , I am 73 years old !'. They said 'do what you can' !
 
although I think that the person I'm talking about is a cheater, he has long retired and even made a small plastic surgery saying he was once the best in his business
