Protecting at the tables is one of PokerStars’ top priorities according to a video released on the world’s biggest online poker site’s YouTube channel.
Sadly, cheating and poker go hand-in-hand like eggs and ham. Cheaters will always look to make a quick buck whenever money is on the table. It’s one of the downsides of human nature.
Thankfully, the PokerStars Game Integrity team is on hand to prevent its players from all forms of cheating, be that collusion between two or more players, the use of banned software, and even tracking down “bots.”

PokerStars claims to spend millions of dollars every year keeping its games fair. The vast majority of online poker players adhere to the rules and have no intention of ever cheating their fellow players. The small minority, the unscrupulous section of the community, spoil it for everyone else.
A team of 60-programmers, analysts, and even ex-professional poker players make up PokerStars’ Game Integrity team. They work around the clock, 24-hours per day, seven days a week, using machine-learning algorithms on super-powerful computers.
This team has full access to every single hand PokerStars has ever dealt, all 200 billion of them.
The majority of cheaters are detected by the Game Integrity team, approximately 95% of cheating cases are dealt with without them needed to be flagged by PokerStars’ customers. The fact they deal with so many cases without you ever knowing about them is a testament to their efficiency.
PokerStars’ holds its cards close to its chest when it comes to letting people know what methods it uses to catch cheaters and review the cheaters’ play. Making that public knowledge would allow those cheaters to develop new ways to evade detection so it is counter-intuitive.
The site does, however, state every case of suspected cheating undergoes a rigorous review process where no stone is left unturned. There has been more than one historical case where PokerStars has made suspected cheaters stream their play for them so they could make sure they were able to play as many hands per day naturally without the aid of any banned third-party software.

Once a player has been categorically confirmed as a cheater they are banned from PokerStars. They also run the risk of having their account balances removed, depending on the cheating offence.
Every email sent through to the Game Integrity team is fully investigated by the team. We love poker here at PokerNews and want everyone to play in games that are fair. With that in mind, we implore you to contact PokerStars with any suspected cheating. Don’t waste their time complaining that Player A cracked your aces for the third time in an hour, but anything you suspect looks off should be reported so the perpetrator can be dealt with.

After a soft launch last week, PokerStars is now live in the state of New Jersey.
Amaya Gaming, PokerStars’ parent company, said Monday that it received “technical approval” from the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement to go ahead with the full launch of PokerStars NJ. Amaya received a gaming license for PokerStars last fall.
“We could not be more proud to bring PokerStars to New Jersey,” said David Baazov, Chairman and CEO of Amaya, which bought PokerStars in 2014 for $4.9 billion. “Working with our partner, Resorts Casino Hotel, we look forward to providing the most exciting, innovative and secure gaming experience to New Jersey.”
In addition to its core product, PokerStars is running casino games such as blackjack, roulette, baccarat and slots. All the games are only available to those physically located within Garden State borders. You also must be at least 21 years of age.
In order to offer online poker in New Jersey, PokerStars had to partner with an existing brick-and-mortar casino operator. There are eight casinos in Atlantic City after four closed in 2014. After failing to purchase an Atlantic City casino years ago, PokerStars eventually partnered with Resorts. Last month, the casino generated $1.3 million in online gambling revenue.
“This is a great day for online gaming, for state players and residents and for Atlantic City,” said Morris Bailey, owner of Resorts Casino Hotel. “Resorts has worked diligently to build a home for globally renowned brands in New Jersey and, with the addition of PokerStars, is proud to introduce yet another respected partner.”

The PokerStars launch comes just days after the Garden State legislature approved a plan to have a November referendum on whether to end Atlantic City’s casino monopoly. Many are saying that casinos in north Jersey could deal another blow to Atlantic City, resulting in additional brick-and-mortar closings. Atlantic City gaming win has been cut in half over the past decade.
PokerStars controls nearly 70 percent of the worldwide online poker market thanks to roughly 100 million registered players. For now, New Jersey’s online poker market is ring-fenced, which means that New Jersey players can only compete against other New Jersey players. That could change if the state decides to compact with another jurisdiction that licenses and taxes online poker.
As of Monday morning, PokerStars already had 24-hour peak ring-game traffic of 304 players, according to PokerScout. That was more than Borgata/Party, but less than the 360 recently seen by WSOP/888. New Jersey launched online poker in late 2013.
The launch of PokerStars comes at a time when New Jersey online casinos just saw their collective revenue increase by more than 40 percent year-over-year in February.
