Cheating.
Is cheating really that prolific? It's certainly becoming more apparent in the Maxim King Of sanghoki tournaments. There are several people who create multiple accounts (and are even cheeky enough to have almost identical names) and then play them all at the same time. This basically gives them loads more (collective) chips than everyone else, and if the various accounts get seated at the same table, a greater chance of winning!

Now, it's a freeroll tourny, so it doesn't make a lot of difference, especially as we're in the later stages so they can't muck up the leaderboard, but does this happen a lot online? I've been reading it mentioned more and more in various poker and online magazines, with tall tales of these little scammers making serious amounts of cash. If it's that easy, why aren't we all doing it?
What can be done about it anyway? From the point of view of the poker operator, there isn't a lot, besides monitoring who plays with who most often and flagging them up as possible cheats. The only real way of spotting it is to watch in real time and observe everyone's cards - this way, it would (eventually) become apparent who was colluding and who was just being slaughtered.
Plus, what about bots? Software programs designed to play poker automatically - no more fatigue, tilt, misread hands or wrongly calculated odds. They play all day every day on vast numbers of tables over tens of sites on all stakes, eventually gleaning small profit - it's the large numbers that make it worthwhile. What about poker bots working together to mince up unsuspecting fish? It doesn't bear thinking about... Online poker is going to have to face these issues sooner rather than later, but will it come out unscathed?

A quick catch up
Before I get down to the serious business of blogging, let's just catch up with where I am.

And I'm destroyed, but I suppose it's only fair. He played well - I put him on a big ace, like me. Ah well, there's always the 8pm game to try and make up some points.

+ A quick catch up
+ Before I get down to the serious business of blogging, let's just catch up with where I am.
+ Yesterday (Feb 8th)
+ yesterday I had a great day - I played 2 $5 STTs and won them both, for a total profit of $30. I played tight aggressive, making a few choice bluffs, and (almost) always having the best hand hold up. Perfect poker :)
+ The Maxim tournaments went well too, I finished high and earned lots of points. Perhaps I should explain about Maxim: it's a men's magazine, and is running a poker tournament (The King of Poker). There are two daily qualifiers, with the top 27 going through to the weekly semi. The winner of each Monday night semi gets a seat in the grand live final in London. There are various other ways of qualifying, but the safest bet is the sanghoki. One point is earned for every player beaten in each of the dailies, so if 300 people play and you finish 50th, you get 250 points. I'm currently 6th, with the top 10 qualifying. I'm keeping up with everyone, but ideally I'd like to be higher. Fingers crossed I'll stay in!
+ Today (Feb 9th)
+ Today was average, and a bit rubbish. Firstly, I came 3rd in the first STT I played, leaving me with no prize money. Luckily, I came 2nd in the other STT, meaning I broke even with winnings of $10. So far so average. The only highlight was AA twice in a row to take out the third player, ha!
+ Unfortunately, I had a bit of an unlucky defeat in the first of the Maxim dailies. Here it is:
+ Me:
+ AK
+ The flop, I'm first to act and we both check.
+ 2Q4
+ The turn and river, I'm first to act again after raising and re-raising we're all in on the river.
+ 2Q4AK
+ Here comes the killer - guess what he's got:
+ QQ
+ And I'm destroyed, but I suppose it's only fair. He played well - I put him on a big ace, like me. Ah well, there's always the 8pm game to try and make up some points.
