Oddly enough, both involved outsmarting systems built to detect anomalies, whether it's bots at the table or viewers outside regions.
Yep, and don’t forget about the Partypoker crackdown in 2019. They purged over 250 bot accounts in just six months and returned $700,000+ to affected players.

Some of the most famous cases involve poker bots like “Clonie” and “PokerSnowie,” which were caught using advanced AI https://www.techtoreview.com/Featured/how-online-casinos-prevent-cheating-bots.html to beat human players. Online poker sites have also banned accounts suspected of colluding or using bots after thorough investigations. In blackjack, card-counting bots have been detected and barred from platforms. These cases show how seriously casinos and platforms take cheating, using a mix of AI detection and manual reviews to maintain fair play.
