The most common form of online cheating is player collusion, where two or more players reveal their hand to each other. Playing online allows players to communicate on the phone, in person, or with another computer.
Also be wary of bots - software that plays instead of a real human are another known form of cheating.
Online poker cheats can do significant damage. Two scandals in August of 2007, where Absolute Poker's software code was cracked by a former employee, resulted in $1.6 million in refunds to its players.
Still, never accuse anyone of cheating. Either contact the poker room's administrators or simply stop playing at the table.

It is now possible to play for free at virtual casinos. In an industry worth more than $12 billion, you will realize that the free casino chips are affordable bait to lure more gamblers in.
Let's take a closer look at what a player receives with those free casino chips. There typically are four main kinds:
1. No Deposit Bonus is essentially free money, with the occasional string attached. Some
online casinos require your credit card details, so be sure to read the rules.
2. Matching Deposit Bonus where top-ups are equal to your first deposit made and most beginners find them irresistible.
3. Uncashable Bonuses are also known as Sticky Bonuses, which allow players to leverage themselves against higher rollers, but cannot convert to cash.
4. A loyalty bonus is where players of good standing receive free casino chips from the online casinos in appreciation of their loyalty.
