The more i think about it the more i feel that this has to be expected. Malicious intentions, lazy/cheap engineering ("agile" :-D) and security by obscurity resonate and leverage exponentially in this domain. slap in some rubbish proprietary code. "deactivate" the "show_equity()" clientside and comment out some javascript debug statements and whatnot. :-D Note that im only halfway serious! If the failure i can imagine is only 10% real its still a nightmare. im missing transparency in a lot of spots here. some more insights in the licencing process, requirements, security audit procedures and results would be "appreciated". proof>trust.
So they are not regulated at all? That would actually be insane when there were no audits...

Sometimes a game surprises some players and makes them think about the fairness of their game, but GG wasn't the only one who saw this on PS

He leído los titulares sobre la declaración que hizo GG Poker sobre ese hacker "MoneyTaker69" que decía que estaba usando algún tipo de truco que le permitía ver el valor de todos los jugadores, incluido él, antes del enfrentamiento.
Dado que GG es prácticamente el sitio de póquer en línea más grande, eso pone a todos los jugadores de póquer en una posición muy peligrosa.

¿Deberíamos seguir jugando en GG?
¿Está PS a salvo de este ataque de “superusuario”?

Si atraparon a “MoneyTaker69” seguramente significa que no está solo y que hay más hackers por ahí.

GG hizo una declaración en la que afirmaba que "solucionarían" el problema. Pero seamos realistas, ¿alguien de ustedes realmente lo cree? Tal vez realmente solucionen este problema específico. Pero estamos en tiempos modernos, un nuevo truco aparecerá en un período de tiempo muy corto, especialmente cuando hay dinero involucrado.

Estoy considerando seriamente retirar mi dinero de GG.
¿Qué piensan todos sobre esto?
¿Están preocupados por esto o creen que es algo que ocurre solo una vez y que deberíamos estar preocupados, especialmente aquellos que juegan con apuestas bajas?
The moneytaker69 thing was not a hacker. He was one of the hundreds of superusers that GGPoker has around the tables stealing from players, but in this case it was managed by a person who was too shameless and GG had to make the announcement to get out of the way, but they are themselves: ggpoker is not regulated, it operates with a license from the Isle of Man known for allowing casinos to scam their customers without any regulation.

Of course the game and trust are already broken. etc
