Default Re: Suspected cheating on AP

db,

Based on my experience with trading platforms and e-commerce applications, even if these guys are pretty incompetent, I doubt a backend database like that would actually be connected to the network. However, the mechanics of how they're compromised are pretty irrelevant anyway. The only important question is whether or not someone actually has a means through which to get realtime access to opponent holecard info. And, as you wrote above, if that's true, it's likely that smarter cheaters have been taking advantage of this already.
