No, there isn't.
In tournaments, players are forced to put hands face-up when no more betting can take place. This is in part so people can see there's no cheating/collusion going on, and in part because it's better for TV.
In cash games, there's no such requirement. Players often don't show their hand because they don't want to give away information to the other players. There's rules about who has to show first, but if she had lost the pot, she could have folded without showing.
> Assuming the cheater doesn't know the deck (which would be extremely hard to pull off)
The insinuation is exactly that, that she knew the deck. (Rather, that software knew the deck and alerted her to a favorable position)
If you're not up-to-date on how that can happen, I suggest you review the mike postle scandal, and other proofs of concept where people are, in fact, reading the state of the entire deck.
- Guvante 4y agoWhat evidence is there that she did? Literally half the deck was a win for her in this situation. The presumption that people don't call with JX is a weird one, unless you have never played poker before.
- mod 4y ago> The presumption that people don't call with JX is a weird one, unless you have never played poker before. This assertion belies your mistakes. Giving you the benefit of the doubt, I think you're talking about playing J4 preflop. It's pretty bad, but whatever, people do it all the time. And of course they can win with it. They don't usually rely on calling a $109k bluff on the turn with jack high to win, though. > unless you have never played poker before. I was a professional player before they shut down the big 3 online sites. Also you're calling out a whole lot of top professional players with that statement.
- Guvante 4y ago"I wouldn't do that" isn't the bar here. "No one would do that" is. Unless you can claim you haven't seen a huge bet on Jack Shit then that isn't sufficient evidence of cheating.
