Hello fellow mobsters im a "poker nerd" that play several hours every day. Lately I've been experiencing alot of abuse of the disconnection protection, actually so much that today I had enough. I decided that everytime someone loses connnection when I put pressure on them I will report them so it can be investigated wether they are abusing the DP or actually lost connection. Today alone I have reported 2 guy's where 1 was found suspecious and 1 was busted......die cheater
Here the answer from my mail with the guy who got busted the other guy will be checked every time he uses DP, the pokersite told me
Email:
"Thank you for taking the time to report a potentially suspect usage of the 'disconnect protect' feature.
We have thoroughly investigated commander02's account history with a particular focus on the player's previous usage of this feature.
We have found that the hand you reported to us was indeed suspicious and as the investigation has revealed further suspicious disconnects in the past, we have proceeded to block the protection feature for this account. In future, should the player disconnect, his/her hand will be folded. The player concerned has been sent an email explaining the reason for our actions.
If you need any further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Contact us anytime, we are available around the clock to assist you with your account related questions and suggestions.
Sincerely,
Rakesh Game Fairness & Security Team "
The cheater tried to see an inside str8 for free.....though I had house so it wouldn't have helped him.....but he must pay if he wonna see...that bastard.

Nice one M3, with that, I think I can call you Mr. justice. hahahaha, just before you got justice with what happened to your car and now you bring justice to the tables..... not a man to mess with
its always nice to know that when you go out of your way to report people for things that the appropriate people take the appropriate actions, even if at the end of it they didnt do anything i like it when people dont just fob you off. but its even better when they do do something about it like happened here

Hey all Hehe Mr Justice with cape and boots....you guys. Yeah it feels great knowing you made your pokerroom 1 cheater less and im very satisfied with Party. Nice they take me serious even though it's not high stakes cause it's still cheating wether it's for 50$ or 5K$. Not only did they do something about it but they take it very serious and answered me quicker than when you write the normal support, 1-2 hours went and the cheaters DP was locked I will encourage you all to do the same when you feel cheated, I could imagine most pokerrooms takes cheating serious and it doesn't take more than a couple of mins to write them an email. I just wrote: posible suspect abuse of DP, table name and suspect name. 2 mins 1-2 cheaters down
@Artic
sorry mate I havent had time to give it a proper look but I will do in time

Hehe GeneYuss the genius, I know it's easy but it's still cheating. Im sad to hear that a bright guy like you would cheat too I would have thought different about you. When you are bright/good enough to out play your opponent then why cheat.....that's weak!!
TBH??
At Party allmost all the shortrings have DP (disconnection protection, not all-in protection) so if I could I would chose not to play at DP tables but very few tables are without DP

ok turbo i just reread your post I get the drift about cheating but I am not familiar with this disconnection protection,, I only play 1 site and if your disconnected and you aint got a check your folded,,, so perhaps for the sake of the less knowledgeable (me) explain it to me,,,how could the guy get to see his straight draw for free if he disconnected on purpose,,and if he did disconnect on purpose how could he still be involved in the hand,,,,hmmm,,,,its probably simple but go through it with me,,,,gl on the tables

ahh sure, the hand goes like this:
44 dealt to me on button I make standard raise 4BB calling station on BB calls, flop comes 4-8-Q rainbow, he checks I con-bet he calls, turn 4-8-Q-Q I bet just under pot hoping he has the Q and will reraise. The donk has 5-6 off and is trying to hit his inside str8 but he knows that it is to expensive to call pot on turn only to see a inside str8 so he disconnect and in that way see river without paying but still able to win if he hit. So by losing connnection he has pot to win(without my turn bet) and nothing to lose. The disconnection feature protects the money he has put in pot before losing connnection so the hand will go to showdown without him paying for it.

Posted by GeneYuss: Its so easy to disconnect. TBH, if I were playing at a all in protection I would do it too..Thats why I don't play there.
When u play net-poker its NOT about beeing fair and a good pal.... its about winning money in anyway u can! and if DP is part of that, then use it to your own advantage!
