i think i just found a third player in the ring. superman mot.





Email i sent to stars just now:


Subject: Collusion at 20.80 double or nothing sit and goes

but you probably knew that already. i did report them a few days ago,
after all.

tauren520 and hey!girl520 have played in 354 $20.80 double or nothings
together blatantly cheating the entire time. they have taken a combined
2814 in profits out of the economy. i have played in 8 tournaments with
them so far, and havent seen them go to a showdown together once. but i
have seen plenty of chip dumping.

why are their accounts not locked? is there really an investigation going
on? do the hundreds of dollars in rake i generate for your site every day
matter at all? does the integrity of your games matter at all?

Email i sent two days ago:

Subject: Collusion at 20.80 sit and goes.

ook, i realize you are probably getting millions of witch hunt emails
about any two people with funny sounding locations right now, but i just
noticed these two players, tauren520 and hey!girl520 from the same
location (i dont know what the location is. i imagine it is from the same
character set) that play the same, and both have a huge (unsustainably
high) win rate. they have each played the exact number of 20$ sit and
goes, and as far as i can tell, theyre always playing the same ones. i
need to know that everything is on the up and up, and i would like an
investigation on them.

you can start here: Tournament #277015912

yup. this hand pretty much seals it.

posting this email allows the colluders to possibly see that you are on to them and cash out their accounts. imo you should stay quiet until stars responds. in my history it's always been a few days.

Also- your hand histories are pointless. One of them doesnt even involve the two suspects. The others are all super standard.

In my opinion the biggest evidence is the sharscope stats. This seems pretty open and shut though.

If such an edge can be gathered by collusion in DON's isn't it time the sites figured out a software method to automatically detect it?
Either that or do away with them.

Played a handful of $20's a while back, could not believe the obvious chip-dumping that was going on, and when reported to stars they said it wasn't collusion because one time [only once] a week previously they got all-in vs each other. Will never play again.

So all the cheaters have to do is a strategic all-in against each other a couple times a week. Chinese were just too greedy.

OMG, just done the searches on them. It's deffo colluding — their ROIs are unreal, even for a heater. They aren't even subtle, they're pretty much always in the same game.

Great catch twisted.

We've all got to be really vigilant from now on. Come on people, we can beat these scumbags

the one that doesnt involve them is a mistake. sorry about that. the other three are clearly chip dumping. what are you talking about them being standard?

hey twisted, just read your OP again and realised you mentioning there's a third player involved in this.

They are all three of them registering in blocks of just four games, all three of them always in the same games at only a medium buyin is so unbelievably bad - just watched their last game finish only a few minutes ago. At such a time as this, middle of a Saturday afternoon, it's not like the 20s rarely go off or whatever, they go off more than once per minute. It's virtually impossible for all three of them to keep picking the same four games by chance.

Maybe Stars should just hire 2+2 to police their games and fire their current security staff. Thats about the only way cheating is going to be stopped.

This. It's not that they don't have the manpower to police DONs. All they need is to run a computer program that automatically does what 2+2'ers are doing!

Those hating DONs (or simply thinking that they are more prone to collusion): Please give me an argument that shows that 5 players sharing hole cards in PLO cash games is either easier to detect (assuming that the players are not stupid enough to want to win 1000 BB/100 hands, or play always together, or things like that) or less profitable.

How is the money confiscated if someone is caught?

Do they loose money from all winnings they've made or only from those where there are questionable plays?

Does their winnings go to the person loosing on the bubble or to all players?

Couldn't it be exploitable?

You actively seek out DoNs where you are 100% sure at least 2 players are cheating. If you win all is well. But you could actually care about getting 6th (or even 7th) if one or both of them are cashing? Then you turn them in and hope they haven't had time to cash-out.

It seems like it would be pretty easy to come at least 7th in 90% of all DoNs.

Never played a DoN. Just curious.

Lol. Really nice. Does someone really need a lot of manpower is necessary to police DONs? Stars, your investigation is over. Time to send your message to the colluders "based on a routine review of their hands".

For those that didn't see it, I think it's worth pointing out that you said that they were on the bubble and then this hand came.

what I don't get is that they can do this over such a long period of time before getting caught.. I just wonder how many more there'll be in the future the more it's shown that it's really-super-easy and you get away with like 95% of your money if you just have a Neteller and a sound withdrawel tactic... Sickening...
