Collusion scandal at PokerStars DoN sit & gos | Coinflip.com

Pretty much is collusion from some group of chinesse in DoN´s games, the amount of $750,000 appears to be close of what this people win (or scam).

Glad i don´t play in those levels ($52-$108).

Is there any way to be safe?, lol, i mean ring games could be easy to do it too, 10 S&G or DoN, and if we think that in MTT could be safe because the big numbers of players, but then it results someone can see the holdcards LOL.


I am happy playing $2 and $5 games, hopely won´t be ripoff there.



Some people just sucks.

love the article and fairplay to pokerstars for refunding.

HAVING said that u do not want anyplayer topping a leaderboard on a regular basis the sad truth is that if players was from a wider geographical position and paced there winnings correctly to individual players they would / ARE never caught.

Like the article states those victims who were previously profiting would have adjusted there already profitable game to try and get an edge back which in majority of cases would of added more harm to them which is not covered in a simple refund.

i am always suspicous just on the grounds i profited within weeks of playing online and did for around 3 years not anymore i dont. Maybe i have just turned sour or players are improving via tools which are available....WHICH IN MY OPINION IS CHEATING.
ie-boku87 on pokerstars he is clearly not using his mind alone when playing 30 tables + and stating no play for a month due to TECHNICAL issues me believes he aint sayin his laptop is on th blink.

I am coming to a close on my pokering ultimately due to non pofit but am suspect

Ultimatley if players canoodled as sophisticated as possible they would be uncatchable


Great article

It's always nice to see cheaters get busted but I still don't think that Pokerstars do enough to combat collusion on their tables.
They have no problem with IM or the use of Skype and I found an article tonight stating that Pokerstars allows the use of something called "Teamviewer".
Google Pokerstars PLO Skype and you'll find a certain forum that states they have over 100 members in a skype group playing on Pokerstars, and it's not the first time they've done it but the last one broke up because apparently they sucked.
Now I know that Pokerstars main priority is the moolah but their tables are being ruined and the fish are disappearing at an alarming rate.


I wonder what Full Tilt's attitude towards this type of collusion is.
