Anybody who has ever played poker, online or offline,
always suspects that they might be the victim of cheating when
the cards aren't going their way. Now there's evidence to
suspect that the hunch is real when it comes to two of the
world's most popular online gambling portals. "Several hundred"
gamblers on the Pokerstars and Full Tilt Poker platforms have
been hit with a cheating trojan, according to ESET security
researcher Robert Lipovsky.
