With the recent scandal that has rocked on one big online poker site, many people wonder what the safety of all online poker rooms is. The truth is that the online gambling environment is vague at best and you always run the risk of being deceived when you play online.
One of the biggest risks is that people share their complete card information. The problem is that it is usually very difficult to prove and to the operator to do something about it. Because it is in their own interest to remain silent or damage the integrity of the game, poker sites often have hidden the results of security investigations.
One thing is certain, claiming that you are misled is one thing, but it is proof. Take the recent Potripper scandal: only when the hands were repeated and placed on YouTube, the abusive site admitted that their system was compromised, and the skeptics finally admit that the conventional wisdom prevention sites completely disable the players are defective.
After this entire scandal had come to an end, it seemed logical that players want to prevent them from being cheated by conspiring players or that the site must arm itself. Always take photos and histories and watch the table. If you think players are conspiring, stop and find another table.
While online players must positively think that cheaters such as Potripper must go to such levels to deceive the game, they must think negatively that all results of any investigation are actually hidden from the players. For this reason, players must protect themselves as much as possible.
