Hi all,
I am new and would like to ask something about the online
poker sites. I was thinking that people could "cheat" by
getting a few friends to play on the same poker table in
the same poker website and tell
each other what they have (talked over the phone or use
IM). I registered to a few online poker site and see if they
have a mechanism to prevent such abuse. But I do not see
such a mechanism, or at least it's not obvious to me.
Do you guys know if any of the online poker site can prevent
the kind of cheating?
thanks in advance.

| this kind of cheating is not profitable enough to make it worth doing. |

run a search here on ftr - there's been a fair amount of discussion on this in the past. |

I'll be playing my first tourney soon, once the deposit
