What detection methods have you implemented or considered?

What do you think is the most effective way for online poker sites to prevent and detect collusion? Should sites rely primarily on automated systems, manual investigations, or a combination of both?

This is definitely an issue and I’ve experienced once with a husband and wife they finally got banned and we’re not allowed to play at the same table together, but it was never actually proven that they were or weren’t cheating but it’s sure I look that way.

Yes, I know very well that collusion is a big problem in online poker. This is becauss players can work together to cheat. To prevent this, poker sites use tracking software that could help in monitoring the player's behavior

Collusion is a big concern, especially on smaller poker sites that may have less security. It’s difficult to prevent players from working together privately, but things like betting patterns and game history can be monitored to identify suspicious activity. Certain actions or patterns could also be automatically flagged for further review.
