Is it easy to cheat at poker? I've always been a bit confused about playing, much less cheating?

Yes, it is possible to cheat at poker, though it is very difficult to do successfully. Cheating involves either manipulating cards after they’ve been dealt or hidden markings on cards that can give players advanced knowledge about the next cards that will be dealt. Other forms of cheating can involve peeking at players’ cards or colluding with other players to make decisions together. In professional casinos it is very difficult to cheat as security protocols and sophisticated technology are in place to detect any suspicious activities. However, in home games, cheating can be quite common and there have been cases where players have been caught using marked cards or colluding with other players.
