im not moaning about losing here this is just a question i have
Comments
un-likely that anyone can see your cards but i have seen chip passing if you note this only play card like AA KK AKs AQs then push as hard as you dare in other words get your chips in first, it works for me. the other thing you can do is drop a comment in the chat box something like (Oh he must be your friend lol). Good luck.
Wheres Scotty???
i never even got to see the table, it wouldn't open. at all.
an hour later when checking, discovered I'd come 2nd!
defo summat fishy going on.
If 2 play £55 DYM and 1 makes it...... the other doesn't you just lost a tenner ???? you have to guarantee 2 out of 3 everytime into the top 3 to make any good money from this.
I think you are more likley to find collusion at cash games where people will pass hand info between themselves and avoid their "Partners" big hands but poss play things like suited connectors against their friends KK with 1 other caller in the pot to try and felt the other guy with whichever hand is more disguised and comes out best after the board
Think about it, would you risk your account, the funds in it being frozen to win at £2 DYM? i know i wouldn't.
Anyone who seriously thinks that Sky Poker, or any large poker site, has any suspect practices going on, is off the scale retarded.
Why don't those in this thread who believe that the games aren't secure, just ban themselves?
There have been a few big stories regarding cheating going on in the poker world, but the majority of them are to do with the financial positions of the sites and not the software. The Ultimate Bet incident was only possible because the guy who did it was extremely high up in the organistion, and didn't have anyone to report to.
This couldn't happen on Sky Poker. I trust SkyBet more so than any other gambling based organisation that I am a member of.
Cheating is possible in online poker, however that is an avenue that ANY member of a poker site could explore should they have the brains to pull it off.
But yeah if you guys think that rigging go's on within the organisations themselves, then just leave this forum and go onto DavidIcke.com because I am certain that you will feel far more at home there. Nutters.
ty seagull i am not saying there is cheating
the fact that the 1st line starts with im not saying cheating is going on
i am just asking with all the software that's out there what is in place to stop it being used
i know 90% of it does not work but there is stuff that will do
thats all i wanted to know
again im not saying any cheating is going on this is not a dig at sky poker i think the site is great and some of the people on it
i know people work together and pokertrev gave a good way to stop the he said push on the short stack 1 that way the big stack will pass his tothe short and they there chips will fade away
Just remember, there is also software to detect it. And it's very sophisticated.
It's not an issue that I think should tax you too much. There are chancers on every site who think they can beat the game by colluding. And every Site has anti-collusion systems.
I've been playing Online for 12 years, on almost every "known" Site, I even own a chunk of an Online Cardroom. Lots of idiots think they can beat the game by cheating. They all get caught. And get their accounts frozen.
If you suspect jiggery-pokery, report it, as it speeds up the process. But the anti-collusion Team will suss it soon enough, even if it's not reported.
There is a MUCH easier way for players to try to beat the game than colluding or soft-playing, trust me. And no, I'm not going to tell you what it is. But it does NOT affect the players.
Colluding is past it's sell-by-date now, the cheats have moved on. And if some team of donks want to collude in £2 DYM's, good luck to them for the day or two they get away with it. If they tried it in bigger DYM's, they'd be sussed within the day, as the liquidity would make their actions very transparent.
The successful players in the bigger DYM's on Sky Poker make good money, because they can play. If some eejits fancied messing with the game, it would be visible instantly.
ty tikay
i know sky have to keep up to date with it all and im sure they do
its was just the fact of seeing all this stuff out there that does this and that , just wanted to know what was in place 4 it all ty for anwsering it for me
on a different matter i took the 500 velocity down last night for team tikay weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
gl in tonights game lets stuff them
Sky Poker won't thank me for discussing Anti-Collusion on here, for obvious reasons what they do & how they do it is best not advertised. For those who can't accept that, well, my view is simple. If I don't trust a Site 100%, I don't play on it.
ive suspected a few of working together but i find that if i just play as tight as i can and play things like aa kk qq jj etc.... aggresively i usually come out on top.
