Cheating on On-Line Poker (Intentional disconnect or paranoia)
I was playing $1/2 NL Hold'em at a well know online poker site. I was dealt the golden axe (AK-s) and limped in because a notorious FPS(Fancy Player Syndrom) raiser was in the blinds. As expected the FPS boy makes a 10x raise and I back raise all-in for about $250. FPS boy has $20 of his own money in the pot with $230 to him to call.... Then he becomes disconnected. The poker software treats him as all-in and he wins a $40 pot with a 43o when he spikes a four.... When he reconnects... He plays one more hand and leaves after myself and another player asked him if he disconnected on purpose.
I sent a complaint to support and they basically tell me there are three suspicious incidents but there is not enough evidence to be 100% certain he disconnected on purpose. He are the three incidents where he was disconnected. 1. The incident above with my AK-s vs his 43o. 2. He has 66 limps in and the flop is AQ7. Two players check and when it is his action he becomes disconnected and is then treated as all-in. He wins thr pot with 66. 3. A player raises 6x, he calls with T5-s. The raiser checks/he checks a flop of rags(the raiser is a solid player). The turn is a 5 giving FPS boy a pair of fives. The raiser fires a $35 bet into him and he beomes disconnected. There were no draws. Am I right to be HIGHLY suspicious? Support tells me this is not enough evidence to convict him of intentionally disconnecting but assuming random disconnects and in all three incidents I believe it was to his advantage to see the turn and river for free there is only a 1 in 8 chance that all three incidents were accidents. Am I wrong? or am i being paranoid? |

Re: Cheating on On-Line Poker (Intentional disconnect or paranoia)
This sounds highly suspicious looking at examples you've given. Which site was it?

All I can say is: report, report, report. With the time, hand number, name, etc.
The sites will do nothing unless they have a paper trail of a particular user doing it constantly at favourable times. There wont be a paper trail unless people take the time to complain. Tell me you reported all three incidents? |

Don't play at that site. Play at sites that don't have disconnect protection.

PokerStars does not have disconnect protection in it's NL & PL games. I'm not sure of any others.

Party is starting to have tables where there is no DP. I think its just on the .5/1.0 limit tables now, but I thought I read it was going to be expanding from there.
