I didnt know where to post this but since it was at a 5/10 game i thought i might put it here. I moved up and played 5/10 and had two players that i was in between that was in on the action every time. The guy to my right called to see every flop. Now what was strange was that the guy to my left would rasie or reraise me every time. Now this happened almost every 3rd hand. I felt like something had to be up and I just checked the deal me out button I sat there for 30 rounds and they didnt do it until I got back in. So i left. But they had to be doing something together. Shouldnt PP have noticed it or is it my responsibilty to turn this in? So i jsut got online and researched cheating which lead to me to a page of how you can read the other opponents cards online. I found 3 web sites with this info but none of them revealed their secret unless you bought their books. Does any one have any knowledge if this is a gimmic or for real?

If you notice some really suspicious activity, you can notify PP and they will do some further investigation (i.e. they will monitor to see if this was just a coincidence or if these players regularly play at exactly the same table and look like they are colluding). It is my understanding that PP has some sophisticated programs to detect collusion between suspected players. Other than notifying party, there is nothing you should do (other than stop playing at a table where you suspect collusion; even if it is not intential collusion, the playing patterns of these opponents do not make for optimal table conditions).

You're not seriously going to fall for that are you? It's not a gimmick per se. The word you are looking for is "scam".

If someone created a software that can expose other players cards I seriously doubt he'd sell it.
