Quite a lot of people like to cheat in the poker games because everyone want to win. Cheating in professional poker tournaments or private games in casinos or personal clubs is much more common than people can imagine. Some people might say "I can't cheat in casinos because I have to use their cards." or "I don't want to cheat my friends in pokers."
However, it's much more cheating than people can admit and also much higher cheating techniques than people knows.
Thus many people are wondering how can cheat in poker.
There are a lot of different strategies that poker players can use to cheat in cards games. Some methods are more aggressive than others, but all these tactics are always ongoing at poker games. For Example, false dealing, holding out, colluding with friends or marking a card and so on are some useful methods. In the article, we are going to go over some of the methods people may possible use to cheat so as to gain the unfair advantage.
1st, False Dealing
False dealing is a common method for the dealer to cheat in dealing the cards. It means to suddenly deal a card without the normal rules. For example, it's right to deal the cards one by one from the top, but sometimes the dealer deal a card from the bottom or the second top base on something that only he knows. It's not easy to detect such false deals if the dealer do it correctly. Both the second deals and bottom deals are quite commonly ways that people knows.
However, this false dealing is for the dealer only. It doesn't work for the players who don't have any partnership with the dealers. In some private games that players take turns to deal cards, False dealing might sometimes help.
2ndly, Peeking or Glimpsing
Peaking or glimpsing seems to be not that serious method of cheating for it's not easy to do this in a casino and also peaking or glimpsing makes a player look very unprofessional.
Trying to peek an opponent’s cards or at the top card or bottom card of the deck seems to be easily, but in fact it's quite difficult. By one hand, you can't see from the dealing without the dealer's help, and when meet a professional unknown dealer, you can't peek any cards at all. By the other hand, very players will protect his hands cards well, and what is more, it's very obviously if you want to peek the player's cards beside you.
So peaking or glimpsing is only a practical method in magic and is completely unworkable in poker games.

Switching cards is one of the most traditionally cheating methods in the poker games. The phrase switching cards can be read literally as to change a card with another, or to bring some cards to the game and exchange them when necessary. For example, a player may possible get an Ace from his pocket, sleeve or somewhere else to change a card from his hand to make double K in his game. And if you have a phone cards exchanger, it might be easier for you to change the cards without others' notice.
