Thanks Poker Stars
Received this email yesterday. Nice to know some sites care about cheating. Funny thing is, all the years I've been playing online , I never felt suspicious at any time about any game I was playing, until 2 weeks ago. I've been playing 6 Max STT and this one game I was short stack on the bubble. I felt the other 2 players were playing soft against each other. I actually wrote down the names because something just did not feel right. (Maybe just paranoid) Both were from serbia. Then I get the email, can't say if it was them, but kinda funny that I felt something was wrong.
