Collusion in Poker
First described in the 1800s as the "cheating game," Poker initially had a reputation for attracting low-life characters, including swindlers and card sharks. Prior to the 1970s, Poker was not found at many casinos because of the difficulty of keeping out cheaters. Better security techniques, however, and the game's increasing popularity led to the reintroduction of Poker to the casino experience, both off line and online.
Online Poker rooms are safe from methods of cheating common at physical Poker games. No one can mark the cards, no one can peek at your hole cards, no one can stack the deck, and no one can sneak a peak at the cards dealt by the dealer.
However, there is one method of cheating that targets online Poker rooms and that is collusion among players. When players share information about their hands in an efforts to help each other to win, or to force other players to place more money in the pot.
Collusion is not tolerated at any online Poker room. Sites use a combination of automated and human monitoring tools to identify and prevent any irregular play patterns or incidences of collusion between players..
It is relatively easy for two players to collude together, but it is becoming increasingly easy for online sites to detect this collusion.
