I'm a little younger than you, Vince. I was thinking, "Paranoia may destroy ya."

The idea of cheating isn't impossible. But it's NOT rampant. If you see cheating everywhere you go, you're either going to the wrong places, or you're incredibly paranoid.

Go pick up "Gambling Scams" by Darwin Ortiz. It details the methods of cheaters. That way you'll know what to look for, and you won't sound foolish when you say things like, "I don't know how they were doing it, but I *know* they were cheating."

Hmmmm, did I say cheating was rampant and everywhere i go. I said I spotted it many times. Yes "many" is relative, but it's hard to make the leap from "many" to everywhere.

You've helped me make my point. There's really little one can do, if they suspect cheating -- other than leave the game.

I don't need a book. I didn't choose to hang around and figure out how they were cheating because there was an opporunity cost for me. I made way more at the other table. I'm not embarrased that I didn't figure out how they were cheating.

Cheers
