Default Is there cheating n Party and Empire?

www.cheatonpoker.com

Someone posted this while I was playing a game. If its true I think its a bunch of bull. Its a little upsetting though because I would hate to be in a room with someone using this program. They claim you can see your opponents cards.

Anyone know if there is any truth to this.

They don't mean you can see the cards while in play. They are talking about keeping a record of hands seen at showdown. It's the same thing as pokertracker.

Sorry, it said to "view" and track your opponets cards at the e-table so I thought they were really cheating.

I thought the same thing too when I first read it. But then realized as I read a little bit more it was a type of pokertracker with a pretty stupid name.

I think someones gotta report that guy to party for soliciting on their site for free. I would, but I don't know is screen name. It could be pretty detrimental to pokertracker users if more players start getting software like PT.

I agree. I wish I remembered his screen name. I was more scared that the guy across the table could see my cards. They do it all the time though. It won't stop them they will just get a new screen name or IP address.

I did report him, I pasted his user name and the spam in an email to support. Their response was pretty shitty. I got an email saying they were going to warn him not to do it anymore. I emailed them back and told them they need to ban his chat permanently, because not only is he spamming, he is implying that party is rigged, which hurts everyone involved. I got another return email saying they had warned him and will be monitoring his chat (yeah right) and if he does it again, then they will ban his chat. Typical effing moronic Party.

I AM ONE OF THOSE GUYS....HA HA HA....I LOST MY CHAT FOR A PERIOD OF TWO DAYS FOR HARRASING PLAYERS AT THE TABLE IN THE CHAT BOX AS WELL AS AVOIDING THE XXXX when you type a swear by tyuping shiit or fucck instead

ONce i got my chat back a couple dyas later I lost it again...this time poermanently and i havent chatted since.

PROS of losing chat are i pay more attention and spend more tim on player notes...CONS would be that i cant piss people off and increase the action i get...I HAVE ADMITTEDLLY (by them) taken many peoples stacks at the party poker 50 and 25 tables (.25 .50 and .5 1) NL tables by talking [censored] to them throughout my time at the table...I RARELY BLUFFED EVER AT THIS TIME AND GOT PAID OFF ON EVERYTIHNG...i have noticed the difference since i lost my chat and now bluff slighhtly more

SO KNOW THAT HE MAY GET WHATS COMNG ---I DID

I think the biggest problem with this particular spam is that by misrepresenting the product in the table chat box, it leaves new players with the distinct impression that someone else at the table is able to cheat against them. This will have a very negative affect on the growth of the game and as such, these people should be drawn and quartered. If they would only work on their game, these jokers could make alot more $ in the long term then they'll ever get off this feckless scam.

As others in this thread have pointed out, the program they are marketing is just a hand history analyzer. The important distinction to make clear to new players is that this allows you to see what people had on previous hands if they went to showdown but provides no access to the hand a person currently holds.

I wish I had a way to reassure people at the table as I've seen this offer spammed across all four of my tables on a couple occasions this week. I don't want to draw attention to the offer or explain what it really is, but I don't want them worried about getting scammed either; I intend to win all their money fair and square.

Someone in the internet forum warned about keyboard logging on that site. I'd be careful.
