Hello guys!

I'm creating this post to address an important issue. Have you ever played at any online poker table and suspected a hacker player? This image below shows a player where he has been All-in more than 10 times and won them all. Detail, most of the time he would go All-in with marginal hands. I found it suspicious and wanted to share.

Leave your opinion here.
hahaha is hard to see.. but it's just luck

1.10 progressive? and with that normal stack see players of that type, throw all the chips over and over again, and just leave it to chance.

I have several doubts about your suspicion ...

1-Do you have images of him going all in?

2-Have you ever looked for him on sharkscope or similar site to see if he is really profitable?

3 - If he was really cheating, wouldn't he try more expensive games?

4-You are playing bounty tournament, generally players go allin more often and with a wider range, either for value or to prevent others from entering the hand. Is there a factor that makes you think differently?

5-Against whom and in what situations was he involved in these hands and what were the outcomes?

6-With this stack he could go allin against anyone at the table and if he lost he would still be a chipleader. Have you tried to calculate the equity of any hand that he has moved all in, in addition to the effective stacks?

The type of analysis that should be done in a regular tournament does not apply to a tournament with bounty, in addition to having to take into account the speed of the tournament, slow, regular, turbo or hyper tournaments will have different aggressions.

Be very careful when accusing without adequate evidence, you could end up harming some innocent, or harming yourself.


Totally what he said.
Micro Cash and tournaments are full of lucky maniac recs!

Hello guys!

First of all, I'm not stating it because I don't have proof. But I found it suspicious. But the focus of the post is the question, if you would ever play with someone suspected of hacking at some online poker table.


Hello guy!

From reading your statement here, why don't you have the title of this thread changed?

Nobody would play on a table if they were aware of others being able to see their cards... that would be ridiculous.
afaik, there's only been ONE example of this every happening with online poker and it was an 'insider' who worked with the company. (potripper) and was 14yrs. ago (2007)

I believe in this. I noticed that, since the last update of PS to the new engine, these weird and bizarr plays had decreased a lot. It is a coincidence?
I think PS and other sites should creat a buttom of SUSPECT PLAYS AND PLAYERS to, after one hand like that, we can press it to the site seek for players that have a lot of that and investigate them more closely.

They can't hack something like that, because they would need a tool, and then they would need to bypass the server that is protecting there main servers.

Potripper was able to see peoples whole cards a long time ago, based on there being a tool to see peoples whole cards by the company.

There is no tool though that can alter the RNG of the cards, and if there was, that site, would be a complete scam.

Sometimes people get lucky, whats the odds of flipping 10x in a row correctly? About 1024:1. Pretty unlikely, but if your playing 10's of thousands of hands, it actually starts to become likely that something like this will happen.

I have never heard of a hacking tool that could forecast the Flop, Turn and River cards beforehand, I have heard of some programs that allow players to see all the hole cards whilst a hand is being played, but they only help to identify when a player is bluffing or holding the best hand.
Most poker sites are aware of this and spend a lot on security to avoid these tools being used and from what I have seen on-line, pokerstars is one of the best at catching these hackers and banning them from playing.
When it comes to playing progressive Bounty Hunter games, the calling range widens considerably simply because you have prize money available and therefore a chance of winning flips is more attractive. You only have to watch players like Nick Walsh from OP Poker on the Twitch T.V. channel to appreciate that, He plays a lot of Grand Tour format games and also runs a class at the end of his Channel explaining why he chose to call or fold in certain situations.

When the fun Stops, STOP!

I've seen this kind of thing many times, especially in bounty tournaments,,, plus, the guy holds a big stack, he is just trying to make his stack bigger out of smaller stacks unlucky as he can afford the loss.

I see this sometimes, but the question is whether the hot streak continues or does it stop at a certain point? If it was a "hacker" player, they would just go all the way to the first prize with their questionable all-ins, right? More likely is that they were on a hot streak for a short period of time and then it ended.

Sometimes you see things in the short term and your mind immediately blames the player. You may actually be seeing something more complicated.

I don't know there may be a hacker, more than giving all-in 10x in a row and winning them all is very lucky or something suspicious happening

In the digital world, one way or another, no matter how strongly the information is encrypted or hidden (we are talking only about online objects), it is possible to access it if you have tremendous programming skills. Also, all existing types of encryption are tied only to the fact that at the time of their application in practice, people on our planet do not have a device for decryption in a short period of time, i.e. with a very, very huge performance of calculations per unit of time.
Meanwhile, to prove a real hack, at least logs from servers are needed, and ideally such people are caught exclusively online, through tracing and retaliatory hacking.
But the weakest link is always a person, because there is a creator, there is an owner and those who carry out maintenance. And these people can get access at any time if they want.



I actually 100% agree with this. When people talk about systems that "can't" be gotten into I think they are forgetting a human programmed that system to work. There is ALWAYS backdoor to a system. Do I think that a majority of people are cheating? Not even close. I imagine maybe 1 in a 1000 sounds more accurate. But I have seen some wild, wild things that make me question some stuff. I guess it is what it is. Until my local casino has poker I'm stuck online.

I do not see anything special in such situations, I have repeatedly witnessed this. Moreover, this is a progressive knockout, as well as a bounty here, this is the norm.

In low money tourneys you will ALWAYS run into people jamming with garbage. That's just part of the game. Pokerstars has a deep history of doing thorough investigations to get rid of hackers. Do a simple google search and you will find some stuff. It's the only site I trust to be honest.

I play the nl25 limit sometimes when the variance gets to me I go down to the nl2 limit I only play all in each hand.According to my satitics, I won in 9 all-in-a-row, I'm not a hacker, an ordinary player, it's just luck and the magic of the RNG on PS
