Neocheating

Neocheating means simple, invisible and highly effective cheating techniques. It is a modern form of cheating that is hard to see.

The simple explanation

Instead of using devices, a neocheater uses small actions to get an edge. These actions are simple, and they are hard to notice.

A closer look

The term is used in writing about card-room cheating. Because the methods do not need equipment, they are hard to prove. Security staff and dealers learn what to watch for.

A practical example

A player seems to know the cards too often, and the floor suspects neocheating.
