Poker Strategies
After receiving pocket cards, you are immediately faced with a choice: play your cards and either raise or call the blinds, or fold.

The best advice I can give to protect yourself against signal cheats is to look out for the player or players who are constantly shifting around unnecessarily, touching chips, cards, ties, constantly changing their finger positions or constantly asking questions. Chances are that these motions and actions may include a few signals. If you suspect two players of signaling, just pack the game in, because even if you are right, you can never prove signaling.
MARKED-CARD CHEATS AT WORK My latest national Online Hold'em Poker game survey results show that on the average of three out of every hundred Online Hold'em Poker games played annually in the United States, the cheat makes use of marked cards. These marked cards are doctored at some time or other so that some or all of the 52 cards can be read from the back. Gamblers call marked cards "readers." Cheats refer to them as "paper," and to the average player's bankroll they are poison. They are the most widely used mechanical cheating device and are used by amateurs, semiprofessionals and top-notch pros because they require no manipulative skill, are surefire money winners and are almost never detected by the average easygoing, unsuspicious card player.
