I just finished watching the piece on 60 Minutes about the Absolute and Ultimate Bet poker scandals. As online poker players we need to be very careful when playing these sites. I have heard stories from countless players claiming the hands they play appear to be manipulated. There are chat rooms out there making the players just feel like they play poorly, when in fact if you were one of the victims at Absolute an UB you were just being cheated.
What we need is a real time regulatory body or service that can prove to the players the hand they were just dealt was on the up-n-up and that none of their competitors had an unfair advantage. We need a product like DealGuardian to protect us from internal fraud and scams. But until we unite and demand such a service from the sites we play, they will gladly keep taking our deposits and drain the US economy out of billions of dollars every year.
