CHEATING IN YOUR HOME GAME
has anyone here experienced some sort of cheating in their home games? i have been suspecting that there is a cheater in my game recently but haven't been able to get any good proof to call him out on it. often for the biggest of pots he would make crazy calls or raises ex.(reraising twice with 2Qo at a flop of AKQ rainbow) then calling all in to see that he's up against 2 pair AK then hit miracle Q on river for a huge pot. he has done crazy stuff like this many times, and he's usually the dealer. i read a lot online about cheating techniques so i can easily spot them, but can't seem to spot any on him. any help would be appreciated!

Re: CHEATING IN YOUR HOME GAME
Don't know if you play a lot online. If you play at the low limmit games, you will see people win like that constantly. The answer probably is that this guy just doesn't know how to play poker.
If you are convinced he does know how to play poker and he is winning most of your home games, makes someone else the dealer. |

we rotate dealers, and he definately knows how to play!

always make sure you can keep on eye on him when he shuffles and make sure that the deck is always above the table. Many cheaters hold the deck below the table and out of line of vision, that is when they switch cards.

also have someone else cut the deck... and then make sure to keep the deck on the table...

Re: CHEATING IN YOUR HOME GAME
We generally play with two decks. The previous dealer gathers and shuffles after the hand, then passes it to the SB (next dealer), who cuts before dealing. Speeds things up, and makes cheating difficult.

Re: CHEATING IN YOUR HOME GAME
for almost all the hands he plays very solid "by the book" poker, except for the occasional crazy one where he outdraws for a monster pot... another example: calling big raises preflop, on a flop full of high cards, and on the turn, until he finally spikes his set with a 5 on the river, or catch a backdoor flush.

Re: CHEATING IN YOUR HOME GAME
Does he hold the deck off the table...if he does theres a good chance he is looking and the flop and the turn and river before they even come
