i agree that is cheating if you say you folded a 9 during the hand, which i don't do, if you say after the hand its fine!!! discussing a hand or folded cards during a hand is also considered cheating by many sites, i can understand why people do, and 99% of the time it is quite an innocent thing because theyre upset they folded, but rather do it afterwards, it isnt something i would report, but some people might and some sites who monitor their tables closely would have the table manager give you a warning for such acts!!!

I don't do it and whe I see people doing it at tables I even mention they shouldn't be doing it. For the most part people are understanding about it but some people get really snotty about it. Had 1 guy tell me to grow up and mind my own business lol.
How about multiple accounts? Clearly posted in all sites they are against the rules, also you are not allowed to give anyone access to play your account either. I always see people mentioning it and it kinda makes me angry.
I played a table one night on FT and there was we will call him superdonk going allin everyhand. When I got moved to the table I had about 10K t his 5K so I just waited for my chance. He got quite upset when I finally eliminated him when I flopped 2 pair As over 10s. Then the player sitting out 3 seats away joined the game for the first time according to other players. Sitter goes allin a few times and the guy goes remind you of anyone? So he proceeds to chat away and explain this is my gfs account (account name was jim something). So I reported him to support. Looked in the lobby after there was 3 jim somethings 01,02,03 and the account he used originally.

I have a particular problem with FT as much as i love the site they don't seem to really care bout these things, so many times ive reported people for this kind of thing and for the entry into freerolls they shouldnt be allowed to, i get the same response every time, thank you for alerting us to this blah blah blah bout there policies, they ask me to send them the players names when i already have in the first mail, then when i resend the names i get the same reply, blah blah blah policies thank you etc, please send us the players names, i have 2-3 or more times, yet the next day those same players are back whether on a freeroll violation or others like multiple accounts!!!

When you send the names, they will look to see if they have cheated, if they cannot find enough proof then there is noting they can do. I never tell ppl my cards during play, but have lied about cards i folded,lol, is that the same thing, cus I guess it influenses the game, but is it a cheat, dont think so, its word against word i think, in poker DTA. Multiaccount is allowed, its just a change in screen name, i have 2 on some sites. Even after asking 1 site to close 1 of the accounts.(not on any affiliate accounts) Not botherd about ppl using outher ppls account, I dont let any 1 use mine, but dont see the real harm in it, might confuse the program lovers :}

Thats the problem with it Bigfoot. It creates an unfair advantage for the player.
Think about this if you have an account and you play the same limits all the times and people have notes on you that you are a loose aggressive player. Then someone else using your account has a completely different style it gives an unfair advantage to the player. The multiple accounts thing is right in the T&C's of almost every poker site that they are not allowed.
For the record every time I have sent a request to fulltilt support they have responded with more than this. Be specific when you send requests. Send: tourney # copy of chat log if it applies usernames any other useful info
This makes it easier for the site support to look into your claims.

Posted by xPOKERx: i have played on a few sites and i have left them for this very reason, people chatting in other languages and colluding, sng's are the worst as they can nominate a table and join forces.
Yeah, tis is absolutely, what i think and made too. You see it very often, when you play at night and there are many people from one country.
I´m from Germany and very often I must hear in the small Pokerrooms things like "Kraut" and other ugly names. Sometimes I close the Chat-Window.

You only have to contact poker room support (as i see you did it) when you see this kind of cheating. I'm sure they have got a penalty because it is illegal and i HATE when some players at the tables chats non english

Posted by doomdy: I think we all did some cheating, sometimes you do it yourself and you dont know youre doin it.
------------ For example: When flop is 99A you say ''i folded a 9'' is also cheating. I think every1 done this not?
sorry.. never done that. I even tell people off when they do so.
Whats the fun about cheating? I dont live by playing poker, i live for playing poker
I have a couple of times mad a screenshot when people has done that kind of thing to me. Mostly eastern europeans i have seen do so. But a screenshot is hard to discuss with.
Starts by telling them to speak in english only. Has also tryed to write in danish back to them.. they dont like that either

At pkr i played a sitn go and 3 french guys were chatting pretty much. Couldnt understand offcourse cos it was french. After a while i got sick of it and said ''english please!'' French guy said ''shut up and learn french'' So i told them they have an option to chat english or i give your names to support cos its only aloud to talk english. Other guys from the table discussed its true only english so they stopped.
I know its a little bit saggy to do this but happened several times in sit n go i played against 3 italians and at bubble time they give each other the blinds just to reach the money and thats cheating.
I'm not saying the french were cheating but i couldnt understand it and they also talked about their cards i guess.

@ doomdy: i never say it while hand is in play i hate those idiots!!!! in a real live tournament they get one warning and then they are disqualified.
and that i don t get angry bout cheaters i do not use anymore the chat function, i don t give a damn if they tell each other their cards it s only a little advantage. I just keep playing my A GAME and do not care about the others. and i think i m doing well that way
