This phenomenon goes also for certain other draws. There is a log of all betting actions, that shows who bets and calls and how much. There is also a player notes function.An interesting fact is that David Sklansky and Mason Malmuth have been consulted for TruePoker to develop an anti-collusion system, with automatic flagging of suspicious activity to be review by the security team.

funny site this one : i played my 4 free games and managed two 1st and a 2nd place so i built a little cash to play with. since then, i have expeienced suck out after suck out and not placed in about 5 tries (way off my usual stats).
i must admit the software is fun but obviously i'm a bit reticent to play there now ! |

Looks like the NOble Poker,Are they affiliated? | ||
| harry_lime |
no elbandido, it has 3D moving grafics (very different from noble) and i don't believe it's affiliated with any of the major networks. i'm sure brian will correct me if i'm wrong. | ||

I played the free sit and goes and won a little, tried to use the money to enter another sit and go but was told it was only for players who had deposited.
Played a few cash games but have not returned for a couple of months. |

| harry_lime |
i did the same as you amarillo and tripled my money on the 4 SNG's. i then deposited $10 and then the money was free to use.
of course you can't cash out until you've met the site requirements ! |
