How To Make 18,000BB/100 Hands

According to securident, they’ve discovered a flaw in the PokerRoom.com web-based client that allows you to drain other player’s accounts. Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!!!!!
Remember kids, when you combine poker clients, sloppy programming, and HTTP, bad things can happen.
Here’s to hoping they get this fixed quickly before someone actually decides to use it.

Dan Crowe added these pithy words on Mar 22 06 at 9:48 amThis isn’t news to me! Every time I play on Pokerroom my account gets drained! I’m just glad I can attribute it to a flaw in the programming and not my horrible play. In fact, I think the same flaw is on Party, Paradise, Bodog, Full Tilt, Stars…

Its a virus called “secondbestisis”
Very dangerous worm program that nibbles at my bankroll.
