People cheat at poker all the time...

This book should be interesting. It talks about cheating at Las Vegas poker rooms and at online poker rooms. I always thought this kind of stuff happened but never to me. But some of the things he says in this article is interesting. It would be fairly easy for two or three players at a table collude and take your money. I'm sure its happened to me before, both online and at the LV poker rooms.

"If you are one of the millions of people who've taken up online poker, there's a pretty good chance you are being cheated on a regular basis according to a man who may be the most successful gambling cheat ever. Richard Marcus knew every trick in the book when it came to fleecing the casinos. He retired without ever getting caught and is now warning poker players about what they are up against. Marcus spoke exclusively with George Knapp of the I-Team.
There's an old saying about poker. If you can't spot the sucker at the table, then the sucker is you. Considering how much money is involved in poker these days, Richard Marcus says it's entirely possible someone will shoot him for revealing that poker, despite its popularity, is crooked. It's rigged, both the online games and the live tournaments in Las Vegas casinos. He's written a new book called Dirty Poker in which he lays out the sordid details."
