I mentioned the fact that a super account had been used by a certain online poker room in the past we are told this can no longer happen now due to improved sicurity measures , sure I believe this to be true but I also think that when it comes to money certain individuals will always look for a way to beat the system i.e ,,, colusion , account selling, multiple accounts and the like,, anyway I was asked what a super account was by a friend so here is a brief discription as reported in f**k online poker,,,,,,,,,, POTRIPPER: The super user account. This account was operated by Absolute Poker Management. Former Absolute Poker CEO Scott Tom and 2nd in command AJ Green profited over $700,000 through the use of a sophisticated scheme and a security flaw in Absolute Poker system. A super user account that allowed its user to see all the cards in everyone's hand during play was discovered by Scott Tom. This account was not a playing account however, so he sought the help of AJ Green. Together, AJ Green would play heads up matches, tournaments, and cash games with four real life playing accounts that were abandoned by their respective owners. AJ Green would sit at a table and play while Scott Tom used the super user account to 'observe' the table, meanwhile he would tell AJ Green exactly what his opponents hole cards were. After building his bankroll by destroying everybody he played, the Absolute management cheaters would play heads up matches with friends and family accounts dumping the chips to them. These accounts would cash the money out. As has been said by all the major sites this cant happen now good!!!,,,,,,,I hope this answers the question about what a suoper account was and can never be again,,,,,,we are told,,

Yeah man as above says happens all the time I posted my post to explain what a super account was in order to clarify a prievious post,,,,,,we have all seen hands like that and we have all heard the grypes in the chatbox about random number generators,, bad sites ,, bad beats but as far as I can determin by my reading of related articles and expierience all sites are the same as far as the generators are concerned,,,,,,,when you consider the amount of hands played per hour online compared to games played live all sorts of combinations if not all combinations will be seen,,,,,,,,,,the hand above is not anything abnormal ,,,,,,,,,,,,,as far as your susspicion of colusion ,,if in doubt give live help a shout
