I am looking for commentary regarding the Poker (Texas Holdem) on Facebook as a prelim to sharpening skills for real. I am busy with the gaming, but realize, of course, it is not real money. And I wonder if this type of play will actually do me any good for the real thing.

My Bodog account was hacked with a keylogging trojan called ZLOB. I’d nursed it up from $8 to over $900. I logged in one day and it was at zero. Somebody across the country had logged in the day before and did “Joy-Riding” with my money, blowing it all in 20 minutes.

I figured Bodog would make it right, but they didn’t. Lip service only. I don’t believe they were diligent in their investigation, and they certainly showed no commitment to protecting their customers. In fact, they implied it was my fault I got a Trojan, even though I had Norton and firewall and everything. Norton never did catch the bug. I found it with a Trend Micro housecall online scan, and switched my virus protection to AVAST.

Strange that he did the hard part in hacking the account, and then caught because he did the most obvious chip-dumping. He should have got me come in and play my normal game, same result but they’d never have noticed.

Hope the 2+2 guy that sussed it gets more than a thank you.
