Online Poker Players Suspected of Hacking

[Acechador]

I do not think so, it is a tournament with a buy-in of USD1.10 and reward for elimination, it is normal that you find that type of donkey at those tables.

We have to keep in mind that this exists and it is not difficult for these guys to circumvent a poker site like pokerstars. These guys invade security agencies, banks, companies with more security. A website like pokerstars would be very easy for these hackers. I work with systems and I know how it works. And there's more ... Online poker was created to make money and not to donate. How many people do you know among thousands who play poker online have become people with lots of money?​

There is a lot to worry about in poker and conspiracies about hackers (or cards not being random) are not among them. Time spent worrying about whether your oppnents' are cheating is time you could spend improving.

Even if it were true (which is ridiculous since no proof has been or could be provided and PS has been around for decades with few documented issues), it is out of your control.

Instead control what you can: put your time into mastering poker tournaments, learn how to beat players who shove too loose... focus on playing well, constantly getting your chips in good, and making good decisions and you can and will win.

Anyone can make money in big field tournaments, you learn how to make deep runs consistently and take advantage of the times when things go right. Instead people focus on the times they lose and blame any number of things because they don't understand probability and how much luck is involved in poker.

If you aren't aware of people winning at online poker I don't know what to tell you other than "what?" There are professional MTT players who profit hundreds of thousands (or more) each year. I know from doing it, that you can make tens of thousands playing buyins $11 and lower with enough volume.

Good luck!

people, I was thinking, I think that if there is a hacker he should play the games that are worth more, as they will not be in a low win KO tournament

These are words of wisdom! Even if something irregular did take place in that 1,1$ tournament, which is highly unlikely, why does it even matter? Just focus on studying, improving and grinding, and then you can also become a winner in online poker tournaments. There are actually surpricingly many winners, if you look people up on sharkscope.

That's what happens. The tournament has KO and he a big stack, and even next to it, he’s a lucky.
That's all it can be.

 

[fundiver199]

I was in a similar situation. About 2,000 people started the tournament. We are at 37 when I get an AA. I'm on average chips. I didn't raise but pushed. The dealer immediately raised all in by 7.8o. There was no reason for him to push in. His hand wasn't good for him, he wasn't blind and his chips were almost as much as I had. He didn't think about it a bit but instant raise all in. Of course he won. Normal people don’t do that anymore when the finals are approaching. I think he could have been like the one you're talking about.

Since he "didn´t think about it a bit", the most likely explanation is, that he was intending to preselect fold, but instead he accidentally preselected call. In other words a simple online misclick

 

[ranynight]

It was me. Just luck , no skill . Don't cry, bro

 

[valetgll]

This tournament is not important and everyone has the right to play as he pleases. So I don't see anything illegal here. He was just lucky.

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.

Can’t trust here sites 100 percent

 

[qWald0]

These are knockout tournaments, you probably started playing recently)

 

[Zorba]

ROFL....

YAY! I MADE IT!
I discovered a hack that can read out encrypted data streams in real time....

Well... What will i do with it ? Steal all the secrets of the CIA? Remove 14 trillion dollars from international banks and hide them in millions of anonymous bitcoin accounts ?

NO!

I WILL CHEAT IN A MICRO BUY-IN POKER TOURNAMENT !

Thank god that hackers are not greedy !

Totally agree, ROFL :rofl:

Lots of suspicion in the thread, and no evidence of any evidence to back the said suspicions, apart from a standard looking screenshot of a random poker table that shows no sign of anything untoward.

I'm quitting online poker right now.

:rofl:

Hi Bro!


I know two people personally who play to this day. Both guys live here in the city where I am. I think they make a good living if they still play low level MTTs after 14 years. If there was no profit then I think they would have finished a long time ago and would not have put money into it. They also have a baby. Whether you’ve made a lot of money with him so far or not I don’t know because it wouldn’t be nice to ask how much you’ve made with poker. But maybe one day I'll be brave and ask .

Actually you dont even need to ask, because OP has an open profile on Sharkscope. So at least as far as tournaments on pokerstars go, his results are public.

Player name raphaleaphar

Count 5.271
Average stake 0,96$
Profit -325$
Ability score 59

The graph show one major win of more than 1.000$ but not much besides that. I dont post this to be mean, but there is room for improvement here. So rather than focus on, weather someone is cheating in a 1,1$ MTT, OP could benefit a lot from working on his game. There are other people, who beat 1,1$ tournaments and also stakes a lot higher than that. So this is possible, but you need to focus on your decision making at the table and not distractions like worrying about a situation, where someone else got lucky.

No buddy, I've been playing online poker since 1996. I'm not new to poker.​

 

[Crash Burn]

Concordo totalmente, :rofl:

ROFL Muita suspeita no tópico, e nenhuma evidência de qualquer evidência para apoiar as suspeitas referidas, além de uma captura de tela padrão de uma mesa de pôquer aleatória que não mostra nenhum sinal de nada desagradável.
Estou deixando o pôquer online
agora. :rofl:

Hi Bro!


Conheço duas pessoas que jogam até

hoje. Os dois caras moram aqui na cidade onde eu estou. Eu acho que eles ganham a vida se ainda jogarem MTTs de baixo nível depois de 14 anos. Se não houvesse lucro, então eu acho que eles teriam terminado há muito tempo e não teriam colocado dinheiro nisso. Eles também têm um bebê. Se você fez muito dinheiro com ele até agora ou não eu não sei porque não seria bom perguntar quanto você fez com o pôquer. Mas talvez um dia eu seja corajoso e pergunte. [/CITAÇÃO]

Na verdade, você nem precisa perguntar, porque o OP tem um perfil aberto no Sharkscope. Então, pelo menos no que diz respeito aos torneios do PokerStars, seus resultados são públicos.

You have in your minds a totally wrong opinion of hackers. A hacker not exactly that guy who's going to steal 3,000 trillion, or access FBI or ClA files or outfit a multinational etc... Hacker is also considered to that young man who can access your Facebook your email etc... So a hacker even if not the one who would steal trillions but the one who could access your email or access your webcam can rather play ko micros tournaments to benefit.​

"a player where he has been All-in more than 10 times and won them all"
Something wrong and unfair really happened!

 

[okeedokalee]

If you had the ability to perform in this manner, why would you do it at micro stakes?

 

[Jutt315]

ok

I have been watching a lot of podcast and ive been seeing a lot of things about people cheating online poker games. I think its BS that people cheat but I know it happens. I dont know what will happen in the next few years but I hope we can figure out a way to catch cheaters and ban them

Leave your opinion here.

To give an opinion more clearly, I would need you to tell me which hands he had when he pushed all-in. If you are able to recover this data, please post the images here. But at first my reading of the situation is:
KO tournament the guy has more chips than all the other players at the table combined. So he goes all-in whenever he has a good hand. Thus, he pressures the other players to give up, because for them to pay means to lose. While for him, it means losing a maximum of 20% of the stack. So he wins the pots when everyone folds (which will not be difficult to happen) and when one decides to call he goes to 1 to 1 with a good hand. If he wins he takes the chips and the KO. If he loses he still has a lot of chips left to play. If it starts to get ugly it changes the strategy.
He's a brave player. But in low buy-in it is quite common to have more courage. Perhaps this is the right strategy.

DID YOU REPORT IT?

 

[Maiuchi]

Hello bro, if suspicious situations happened to me several times, one that I remember the most is a player who won me 5 allin 5 times only with the winning card number 6, as you mentioned I always went allin with marginal cards and every time I win, like this until eliminating me, it was also curious that I always formed a ladder with the 6 or a pair and with that I beat my AK and AA and others

A hacker in a $ 1 buy-in tournament?) Most likely this is another Forest Gump

 

[marvinsytan]

seriously, you think about this in a $1.1 game?

 

[AjR3ckless]

Hackers are not our problem,they are problem of the administration and the support.

Until your hacked out of 1st place
