Avoiding Online Gambling Scams

Posted by On July - 16 - 2010ADD COMMENTS

Any time you invest money online gambling, you could become involved in a scam. It does not matter whether you are online playing Texas Holdem poker (or other forms of online poker), blackjack, keno, slots, craps, roulette, or any other type of online gambling game – you should always be aware of the possible online scams and take all necessary precautions to avoid being scammed.

You can have a lot of fun online gambling, as long as you prevent scams from interfering with your play. By using the following steps, you can easily avoid becoming involved in online gambling scams.

Tips to avoid online scams:

1. Before you ever sign up for any online gambling sites, be sure your computer has the latest available anti-spy ware and virus protection installed. It is also suggested that you have these set to do automatic updates and periodic scans on your system.

2. Only sign up on sites that are reputable. Stay clear of any new websites or ones that you are not able to find information on. You can ask other online gamblers (that you know personally), check gambling or news websites, or other sources. The best advice: if you cannot find any reliable information on the gambling website, stay clear of it.

3. Do not disclose information that is personal by email, or reply to emails sent by online gambling websites. Some online gambling scams involve emails that are supposedly sent by reputable websites, but they are actually a scam. Any time you have to update or change your personal information, do it directly from the main site.

The 5th of the WSOP Main Event began yesterday with 574 players at the tables, including nine Spanish with Tomeu Gomila ‘Amato’ with the biggest stack of them.

Armando Munoz-Calero with the stack shorter than ours, was the first in the position 560 ° with a prize of $ 24,079 and getting to cash in the Main Event of the World Series for the second year row.

Tomeu Gomila the position reached 378 º and fell in a clash eliminated when preflop, with 500k in the center of the table and AA, its rival, with 33, getting a set on the flop gave him his hand. For Tomeu was a final prize of 36 463 $.

Javier Bowl ‘MuckedBoY’ leaving the tournament right after the 379 º also put $ 36,463 in your pocket.

Javier Martínez, Luis Rafael Sans Ubierna and remain in action

Paul Ubierna was broken shortly after the 375 º position, again $ 36,463 , in a quarter of an hour which was unfortunate for us. A hand in getting a double on the flop but his opponent was flush on the turn left him virtually eliminated.

The Hungarian-Mallorca Zsolt Soros I accompanied the rail on the same stretch of prizes falling in the as º.

350

Ernesto Jiménez ‘Grischuk’ managed to reach the 48 847 taking 228th position $.

Javier Martinez ‘Elflacokanu’ has ended the day like Spanish with more chips with 1.494 million points. Have dinner companion had the right to Johnny Chan, two-time winner of the Main Event.

Here is one of the most interesting hands of Javier copied from chronic live Pacocha where ‘Skinny’ dial a call on the river bright …

Finally I could cast with the permission of the keeper of the rail. The hand was worth it. Flako 28,000 open your hand with 36s and pays the player on your left. 579 rainbow flop ago to 41,000 and call continuation. In turn 3 and it falls on a check / call a bet of 75,000 from rival … The river is a Q no color and the hand will be check / bet of its rival by 300,000 (Flake has 300,000-plus) and after thinking about it is the pay at a pair of three to take a boat that puts to 900,000.

He could get another nice pot with AK vs JJ who put him in a million and a half of chips and finished the day with 1.494 million (47th º).

Luis Ubierna ‘Luiggy’ also had a good day and was able to consistently grow your stack 811 000 points to end (since º). 121

Rafa Sans, ‘nufan’ Forum Poker-Red , has become the revelation of the tournament between the Spanish. Classified Rates bwin, have managed to overcome the day 5 despite having moved throughout the day with a short stack. Stop 440 000 (167 since º).

This is the summary of the day Pacocha which has taken extraordinary final post

Well, we closed the day with a good taste. Again I think who would play out of the tournament will now not so good.

Amato I think for example that started the day with a big stack and how the fate did not smile at all. Mucke, Armed …

Grischuck

Incidentally, I had a moment when I accompany legendary Ernesto receivables. I do not think anyone else recording at the time of disposal, but the photo collecting wads I find interesting.

Unfortunately for me, first touches a tail, without grace, I thought I would give the bundles directly one of the cashiers behind bars … the fact is that I take a picture with flash and test angers me fall on all sides .. One of Ernesto (I do not take pictures) a backup .. (Here you can not take pictures) and the third of which is in front of Ernesto in the queue (do not take pictures here are all very hot.) I ask as along the main and tells me “KK vs AA” (I do not believe anything) but I answer that has priority Grichuck for me to go out with AK vs AA.

Curious world of poker tournaments where people are pissed in a queue to collect $ 40,000.

Anyway … we are in the 6th with three Spanish. Flako today made a dramatic call with 5 partner. A big hand on the biggest stage in the world of poker … 900 000 points for quality no doubt is the hand that impresses me most about my days as a reporter.

Rafa “Nufan” Sans continues to play a magnificent poker and earning the respect of everyone. Not going to give a statement and hopefully tomorrow will be folded to the first change to aspire to everything. And last, but only chronologically, Luis Ubierna is playing a torneazo and has had a touch of luck (or at least the absence of misfortune) that the variance is not prime now with him and prove his quality in the main event .

Tomorrow can and will be a great day … not every day you play a 6th of the main event with such good potential.

Before you begin the WSOP, Ted Forrest bet two million dollars with Mike Matusow . To win, Ted must have weighed at least 63 kilos (139 lbs) , ie 22 kilos less than his current weight at that time before July 15.

The bet seemed impossible and also dangerous. The weeks passed and, as Ted’s friends, it looked increasingly thin. Yesterday was the final day of the bet and when to get on an electronic scale to see if he had achieved his goal.

In the presence of Huck Seed, Michael Craig, Forrest weighed in this context and no less than 138 pounds , just enough to win the bet.

Forrest said she had at least eleven days without eating a meal and, above all, eager to drink plenty of fluids. Michael Craig Forrest congratulated and, of course, asked how he felt: “I feel great, really,” said Forrest. “” All I want is to wake up Matusow to drink a glass of water “.

For now, the only reaction that Mike is aware of itself through its Twitter account. After knowing the outcome of the bet, the only thing he could say was: “Ted Forrest is the sickest man I ever knew “.

During the main event of 1982, Jack Strauss was left only with a tab of $ 100 after losing a hand . Obviously, at that time nobody would have gone for Strauss, however, days later he won the bracelet, popularizing the phrase “just need a chip and a chair.”

Now, some years later, Gualter Salles , a member of the PokerStars team could be on track to repeat the feat of Strauss.

Gualter Salles, a chip, a chair … and good luck

On day five of the main event, Salles was reduced stack to only 1,000 points, enough to put the to in the next hand. Two later, Salles had made up his stack up to 32,000 chips.

On the third hand, Salles was all-in with A [diamante] K [pica] and two players called the bet. The community cards helped him with a A [pica] the turn and rose to 105,000 in chips .

Salles won his fifth consecutive hand, this time A [pica] K [diamante] to 7 [diamante] 7 [trebol] that catapulted him to the 225,000 points . An hour later he returned to put all his chips in the center, emerged victorious and found 405 000 pieces in total.
