Poker World Rocks: Cheating Scandals, Errors, and Big Wins


This week's poker news is filled with drama and excitement. A group of Bulgarian players managed to duplicate the signal from their computer to a second computer to access GTO solutions in real-time without being detected. This sophisticated cheating method allowed them to gain an unfair advantage in online poker games.

In other news, Daniel Negreanu was incorrectly awarded 213 points by the WSOP, which led to him losing the Player of the Year title to Robert Campbell. The error was brought to light by reporter Alex Elenskiy, who played a crucial role in correcting the mistake.

On a positive note, Martí Roca has officially joined the partypoker Team Online, alongside notable players like Jaime Staples and Jeff Gross. This is a significant achievement for the Spanish player, who has shown impressive skills in the poker world.

partypoker has also announced that it will soon make over 400 million hands played in October available for download. This move is expected to enhance the transparency and analysis of poker games, benefiting both players and enthusiasts.

Sam Soverel made a remarkable achievement by winning the Main Event of the Poker Masters, earning $680,000. His victory was part of an impressive run where he reached seven final tables out of ten events, showcasing his exceptional poker skills.

Finally, the final stage of the CNP888 2019 begins this weekend at the Casino Gran Madrid in Torrelodones. Poker enthusiasts can follow the Main Event with live coverage provided by Poker-Red, led by Adrián Sevillano.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
