Default Re: Duplicate Poker

I just put $50 on this to check it out. They said there was 100% dep. bonus, but I either missed something, or did it wrong, because I haven't seen anything yet. Wish I'd known about the cardplayer thing.

On the plus side, I used a plain old US mastercard, and it went thru with no problems.

As far as cheating goes, I'm not sure, but it does seem like there could be some.
If A plays B and C plays D in two HU matches, then A is actually competing against C and B is competing against D to see who could make more.
If B and C collude on the phone, then I'd say A and D are at a big disadvantage, since their opponents know both sets of cards. The flops are simultaneous, and every hand you see turn and river, regardless of folds, so there's no way to know how the hand will play out for sure. But I still think knowing you are in with the advantage PF could go a long way towards profitable cheating.
I don't think I'll put more money into this until I find some kind of assurances against this.
