Re: Home poker cheating - how common is it?
I have seen my father in law cheat at the grand ma game very now and then. He barely puts his blind out there, and then after he has folded and everyone is concerned with the flop or whatever, he reels it back in. His pushing of pots has come under suspician as well. I've seenanother player at a different game, uses the chips of someone who has folded, but has a blind out there as part of his bet when it is close to him. He stacked his chips on there chips, and pushed it in as if it were his previous call.
All of those cheats could be fixed by haveing a dedicated dealer of course. It is something I am trying to arrange for my games, but no one wants to deal a whole game for nothing, and no one wants to tip, or discount anyone who would want to be dealer. My games are alll two table tourneys.
