I'm grunching on this thread, but my guess is that there aren't actual "superuser" accounts. It's much more likely that if there is cheating, they are viewing your cards through a trojan horse.

There are millions of infected 'zombie' PC's out there. It wouldn't be too difficult to write a script that could pull data from poker software in real time.

An fairly well known PHP spider-crawler author at the DC PHP convention disclosed to the room that there are many trojans out there that are doing exactly this already.

If you play high stakes, I'd highly suggest scanning for spyware, and possibly giving yourself a clean re-format if you want to be sure your system is clean.

I'd also be very careful about installing 3rd party poker applications.

I'm going to post a HH that goes COUNTER to the current hypothesis. It's a hand where an opponent moves all in on the river, and ***DOUBLEDRAG CALLS WITH A WORSE HAND*** But not just any worse hand: bottom pair. On no planet does this make sense. It doesn't make sense if he CAN see hole cards, and it doesn't make sense if he CANT.

These stats don't convince me. Its surely something that needs to be explained, but it certainly wouldn't be enough to convict someone in a court of law. Especially since we are just talking about a couple of hands. if he was pulling these numbers over 20,000 hands that would be a little more convincing.

The problem we have is that AP will do its best to hide any possible cheating. So we may never get to the bottom of this.

hmm, he only has 2300 in that HH. what's the rest of that session like?

if nothing else that could be the misclick, lol.

Re: Beat: Absolute is *actually* rigged (serious) (read me)
 

Perhaps there isn't a trojan on that guys computer? Maybe improving his image?

Re: Beat: Absolute is *actually* rigged (serious) (read me)
 

Could that hand be the chipdumping we've heard about?

Or he could just be chip dumping to someone he possibily knows? Who knows...

Re: Beat: Absolute is *actually* rigged (serious) (read me)
 

Does anyone agree alot of this stuff is so worthless. To me, its pretty clear these guys are cheating. They are obviously going to occassionally lose big pots so they dont get busted?????
ex. calling the river with Q2 bottom pair on a crazy board and the combination of their VPIP makes their oppenents think they are awful (for more profit ldo) and makes ppl like you fall for their trap. pretty simple to me. hands like these are them trying to prove they dont cheat and some of you are falling for it
