Don't you think there's somebody or 20 people out there with half a brain that's winning a few, losing a few for 8 hours until they're up 40K for the day. Then come back the next day and do it all over again? That's what really scares me.
Of course. ...and apparently there is quite a bit more of that going on than most of us thought.
it goes back to the question of computer security.
I know that if I ever get involved in playing serious online poker again, even at the medium stakes games I play, I will have a dedicated poker computer that I will NOT use to surf the web or download anything... I will only use programs that I know are most probably safe (Table ninja, Pokertracker/HEM, notecaddy, etc.) and I will use very good security software that informs me of anything unusual going on.
I wont let anyone use or have access to that computer and, as someone bought up earlier in this thread, I will not fall asleep while hookers are in my home. (Ok, I'll try not to)
