CHEATING

i believe i was cheated against this morning in a sng and emailed support about it

1. 2 players were not speaking in english as the chat rules state

2. it is my opinion they shared information about thier hole cards in order for them to stay 1 and 2 and make the money

if anyone can tell me what they were saying i would appreciate it

Dopamin69: wat soll dat?
BillyMouse87: geh raus
Dealer: Regular time for player Dopamin69 has expired, TIME BANK has been activated
Dopamin69: hab 66
BillyMouse87: qq
Dealer: Game #13131329918: BillyMouse87 wins pot (1475)
Dealer: Limits going up: blinds 200/400 ante 25
Dealer: 7-2aintbad, it's your turn. You have 12 seconds to act
Dealer: Player 7-2aintbad has requested TIME

they both stated their hole cards and then dopamin folded

at the time we were 3 handed and i was short stacked

Thank you again for bringing the actions of 'BillyMouse87' &
'Dopamin69' to
our attention. Their comments were inappropriate and violated the
tournament rules listed at
Poker Stars - Poker Tournament Rules.
Although many of our players are not aware of all proper tournament
rules
and etiquette, this player has been informed of the rules now. A
future
infraction by this player is potential grounds for chat revocation or
even disqualification.

The help of players like yourself is integral to maintaining the
integrity of our games on PokerStars, and we appreciate vigilant
players like yourself who help us police our games.

Regards,

Unless Pokerstars support just assumed that the only rule broken was the language rule.

Maybe support didn't even look at what was actually said.

If they went through a whole tourney telling each other their cards, I'd expect
stars to do more about it.

couple of idiots lol. If they wanted to cheat, y don't they just call each other up on the telli, or d/l aol instant messenger. It is because of this that I nominate these two people as Jack Asses of the day.

Thats the bottom line!

They could not be necessarily cheating, maybe the guy with QQ was trying to scare the opponent or the other player, hiding a bluff, told the 66 to try to show that he was afraid and had to fold.

That type of trash/psicological talk is normal.
