Question: How rare is it for someone to have infinite river aggression factor over a small sample size like this and be a winner? Can anyone who has a largish database comment on this?

Firstly, there is no "bug". There are only two ways to know other people's hole cards:

Crack the RNG
Inside job

So please stop saying that "other people could miraculously have found out how to see holecards, if one person is doing it then maybe 200 are." It just simply is obviously false. You think AP sends packets of everyone's holecards immediately? That would be the most retarded coding in the world. Yes there could be more "insiders" but its not like joe blow hacker from the street could miraculously see hole cards just by being good with computers.

Secondly, how many times did he get to the river? We have the DB where he played 500 hands. I want to see how many hands in the 500 did he get to the river, and how often during hands that went to showdown, did he put chips in behind.

You can also hack into the server and modify your account or read other players' holecard data there somehow (e.g. sifting through RAM or tapping outgoing packets). This is how the Highlands breach was accomplished IIRC.

i dont think playing high stakes is necessarily a bad idea if ur the hacker

I mean u could grind 1/2 or 2/4 for a year unnoticeable and u might make 500k, but the bug u are using could be fixed at any time.

u gotta maximize the money u steal before it is fixed or they catch on to u.

also, is getting caught that big of deal? Is cheating at online poker even illegal in america?

Something is not kosher with cloaking the pertinent information from 2+2 readership-at-large in the mod forum. This information should be available to everyone since (if I am understanding this correctly) it is merely one person's anecdotal evidence. Must be pretty convincing evidence, too, given the way it's being treated.
