I'm not familiar with pokerroom.com specifically, but with poker sites in general, the diff between the free and pay versions is usually that people cheat in the pay version, because there's an incentive to do so, so you get your ass handed to you. The real competition is between which teams of cheaters can cheat the best, as it can boil down to the cheaters playing against one another.

Huh? How do they cheat?

A major difference between free and pay is people bet completely different when money is on the line. The same holds true with different buy in amounts. This not only happens online but also at real tables. I usually lose when playing with free money at a real table, but I haven't stepped away from a real table yet with less money than I put in.

They're completely different.

The only place I´ve found that take epassporte is PartyPoker

The rest declines the card because its from a Carribian country.
With PartyPoker you transfer directly from Epassporte and when you win you can get it straight back in your Epassporte account usually within a couple of hours


PartyPoker 20% extra on first deposit
PartyPoker $25 extra on first deposit

It would be easy to cheat playing at pokerroom. You just get like 5 people sitting in the same room playing in the same game and they can just tell each other what cards they have. Any random person joining a game could be cheated if people really do that.

Probably be easier to cheat that way in a tournament. I wonder sometimes when I see suspicious betting. I wouldn't play in any big money tourney online. Just gotta hope that the $5/10 tables aren't worth a cheater's time.

I lost every tournament I played in at Party Poker today.

Probably not worth an individual's time if there's bigger fish to fry, but if the game room can be scripted, it's worth putting a couple conspiring bots at lower-stake tables.
