    Well don't play on UB or AP and you are reducing your risk by a HUGE amount. Stick to sites you trust.

    Sometimes reading 2+2 is like reading a Socialist Workers Party Newsletter...

    It seems that the cheaters could easily have got away with it if they had a slight clue about keeping there stats in line. I'm sure an experienced player would be able to conceal it.

    apparently they were all playing 60/40.

    There must have been players who were smart enough not to play stupid so its lucky that these other guys did play stupid or else it might have gone unknown.

    Surely it would have been much less noticeable if they had played omaha ? Myabe players did and it just wasn't noticed.

    But maybe the software problem didn't extend that far.

    I would be interested if anyone has asked UB did it.

    Great to see the site admit to it publicly etc, however they really haven't given the 2+2ers who discovered it, provided a lot of evidence and pushed the issue nearly enough credit. Nice to see them refunding everyone though.

    I don't think this issue is anywhere near cleared up yet. There's still lots of unanswered questions IMO

    Will UB be added to the blacklist as well or will the fact they admitted cheating had occurred (at least in some way) save them? I still don't see why anyone would want to play there if they had read the story.

    Any programming can be "cracked" in a variety of ways. Cheating in cards has been around for as long as cards have existed. I play online for fun. I play in a brickandmortar casino for money bigger than just fun.
