The cell phone is to distract yourself while they give you hands, but that can also be to cheat, and I think there should be rules in each tournament and they have to be followed, if we want to grow the community and make the player feel that confidence, it must be given priority to the player.

Its not about what you do to yoursele, its to be fair to other players!

That's right, the company should always worry about its users, its players are the priority, and transparent scenarios should be created, so that players can play and not feel like they are being cheated anywhere.

Btw i think mike postle was not convicted in a court of law , but still many accuse him of cheating , when they talk about biggest scams in poker he is one of the top 5 to be referred . Just google it .

Anyway , any protection measure is good tor the integrity of the game . All players if they ate not one of the cheaters , then they must support anyone who tries to impose new rules , stricter for the gameplay , to fight cheaters , colluding behavior , GTO AI solvers and programmes and other cheating methods

What she says about sunglasses , its true , they also must be banned , forbidden at the poker tables . I thought fog my self of sone ways to cheat with sunglasses or special glasses , its not so hard to use some cheating tricks and steal pots . Mark and put sth at the cards , see it only with your glasses and know the card value . Many other ways . So yeah , sunglasses must be banned
With all these cheating methods , i don't believe anyone can trust online or live poker , and play without fear of being cheated by scammers . Scammers tule in poker nowadays , especially online .

You will find scammers anywhere, but the responsibility of looking after their clients is the companies, and I think that now all poker rooms should be more aware of these cases and ensure that fair games are always developed.

Even if they ban and forbid sunglasses or mobiles or anything else at the tables , scammers will always find new ways to cheat . Poker friends and colludors are worse live or online , sharing info for their hands , playing you for a fool and steal your money . I guess these guys cannot be caught live easily . Especially when they target small fish , fun players , not the house

I started with Texas Hold'em but the poker rooms don't work properly for all the players and it's not fair. Some are very advantaged in many games and small players are very disadvantaged by softwares.

There are many things that have to be improved in live poker tournaments, I think what this player says is correct, many will be in favor and others will not, but we know that the majority wants a fair game.

Unfortunately, online poker is very disadvantageous for small players, where they don't give you the chance to make big plays and win bigger prizes. Poker rooms can be blamed for this.

Besides cheating here is also the speech play . It myst also be banned . It is very annoying , it distracts you and it might become offensive and insulting towards you . It is also a problem when you face some bullin players like helmuth .

Poker casinos should care much more about the safety of small poker players. I think that creating an ecosystem where everyone is protected will mean that more players arrive and stay in the room.

poker has to be a fair game, a clean game so that other generations see that and get hooked on this game, every poker room in the world should see that and take action on the matter, first the most veteran ones must give one step first.
