PokerStars 與 GGPoker RTA 政策對比：圖表規則、偵測與處罰

PokerStars 與 GGPoker 均禁止即時輔助（RTA）。兩者對確認的作弊者永久封號並沒收 balance。但scope、carve-out 與 enforcement machinery 差異足夠大，一平台的習慣可能在另一平台觸發 ban。

本文並排解讀 PokerStars 與 GGPoker 截至 2026 年 公布的 RTA policy。假設讀者已知 RTA 定義（見 what-is-rta-and-why-is-it-banned），不重複 GGPoker 專屬 session protocol（見 can-i-use-rta-on-ggpoker）。

主要來源：GGPoker SEP v20260313、PokerStars General Terms（Prohibited Tools and Services）、PokerStars Game Integrity 聲明、GGPoker–GTO Wizard 合作公告（2025 年 3 月）。

共同 baseline：live advice 零容忍

原則	PokerStars	GGPoker
RTA 定義	提供*"real-time advice on what action to take"*或削弱 human decision-making 的 tool	"External assistance which… influences… decision making in real-time"（SEP §2.1）
session 中使用 solver	client open 時禁止	client open 時禁止
確認處罰	permanent ban + balance confiscation	permanent ban + confiscation（SEP §2.4）
off-table study	client closed 後允許	client closed 後允許

兩者均將按 software 提示 click 的 human behavior 歸類為 cheating，非「smart study」。

Policy 分歧在 scope、carve-out 與 enforcement machinery。

對比 matrix

主題	PokerStars	GGPoker	Migration risk
RTA rule 何時生效	PokerStars software/app open 期間	GGPoker client open（含 not seated）	低——均較早生效
play 中查 chart	Limited basic preflop chart：各 position starting hand、僅 unopened pot；無 stack depth 或 situational grid	Any chart 一律禁止（SEP §2.3）	HIGH — PS habit → GG ban
Solver + client	open solver 前須 close PS	open solver 前須 close GG	低
ICM / Nash / push-fold tool	play 中 ban；advanced equity calc ban	play 中 ban	低
Randomized bet-sizing tool	explicitly prohibited（auto-folder、size randomizer）	RTA / auxiliary tool ban 涵蓋	PS 上 medium
Remote access（TeamViewer 等）	EPA/prohibited tool policy 下 restricted	SEP auxiliary tool named list	GG 上HIGH
VM / emulator	monitored	Named list（VirtualBox、VMware、Bluestacks 等）	GG 上HIGH
Third-party HUD	room-specific allowlist；advisory HUD ban	Solver、chart、HUD 列為 influence decision 的 auxiliary tool	medium
Machine scan authority	可 examine concurrent program	SEP §1.10：可 scan device、fingerprint file	GG 表述更廣
Live ghosting / coaching	prohibited（real-time advice）	prohibited（external assistance）	低
Detection headline	in-house ML accuracy-of-play platform；稱 >95% proactive RTA detection	GTO Wizard timestamp correlation；behavioral monitoring	—
Verified ban wave	ongoing zero-tolerance；case detail 常 confidential	40 ban（2020 年 9 月）；GTO Wizard launch 31 ban（2025 年 3 月）	—
Fund redistribution	balance 不足時 PS cover victim shortfall	2020：$1,175,305.43 自 13 account confiscated → 4,329 player reimbursed	—

Chart divergence（最大實操鴻溝）

此行致 cross-platform violation 最多。

PokerStars（prohibited tool language 及 public FAQ summary）允許：

• 定義各 position 可玩 starting hand
• 僅適用於unopened pot
• 不含 stack depth、relative position 或 user-defined filter

超出——stack-keyed push/fold matrix、ICM chart、solver export——client run 期間均屬 RTA。

GGPoker SEP §2.3 hard line：

"Referring to charts of any kind during play is strictly prohibited."

無 basic preflop carve-out。手機裡 13% UTG open range 在 GG 即 RTA，PS 或 tolerate。勿 migrate PS chart habit。

Client-open window

兩 platform 自 software launch 即適用 RTA rule——非僅 deal card 時。

狀態	PokerStars	GGPoker
Client open、browse lobby	RTA rule active	RTA rule active
Seated、hand 間隙	RTA rule active	RTA rule active
Mid-hand	RTA rule active	RTA rule active
Client fully closed	Study tool OK	Study tool OK

PokerStars Game Integrity 明確：session 結束、client closed 後 solver OK——否則 trigger detection。GGPoker 與 GTO Wizard partnership 旨在 correlate solver usage timestamp 與 live hand data；「phone 查一個 flop」在兩 network 均 fail。

Detection method

PokerStars

Public disclosure：

• 約 6–7 年 build 的accuracy-of-play ML model；flag solver-like strategy profile
• community report 前 >95% proactive detection（third-party industry citation）
• single hand 與aggregated strategy alert
• process awareness：知與 PS concurrent 的 program（非 browser content）
• confirmed case 或含video/phone investigation

GGPoker

SEP 加 2025 年 3 月 partnership disclosure：

• Device scan authority（§1.10）與 file fingerprint matching
• Named auxiliary tool ban：remote desktop、VM、VPN、seating script、auto note-taker
• GTO Wizard integration：suspicious in-client play 與 solver query timestamp correlate；partnership announcement 當日 31 account ban
• Fair Play Check（GGPoker Wizard）multi-network accept player flag

兩 room 均不 publish full algorithm spec。invest detection 因比 reimburse 數千 victim 便宜——GG 2020 已 demonstrate。

Enforcement casebook

GGPoker — 2020 年 9 月

• 40 account permanent RTA ban
• 13 account fund confiscated：$1,175,305.43
• 27 ban 無 confiscation（insufficient balance 或 investigation outcome）
• 40 additional account warning（under watch，非 formal tier）
• 4,329 player 從 confiscated pool reimbursed（均約 $272）

GGPoker — 2025 年 3 月 GTO Wizard launch

• 與 GTO Wizard formal integrity partnership
• 31 account 因 live play 期間 suspicious GTO Wizard usage 立即 block
• ongoing timestamp correlation against server-side hand data

PokerStars — Ongoing posture

• public zero-tolerance：confirmed RTA permanent ban + confiscation
• case detail 少 publish；emphasis proactive ML detection
• FAB 與 PTBB 在「RTA」成 industry shorthand 前即 ban

Migration trap（Stars → GG 及 reverse）

PokerStars habit	On GGPoker
second monitor basic preflop chart	RTA — all chart ban
client idle 時 TeamViewer coach review	named prohibited auxiliary tool
VM isolation	named prohibited — scan trigger
「client open but not seated」solver peek	RTA — air-gap violation

GGPoker habit	On PokerStars
zero-chart discipline	仍 valid——cross-room 最安全
以為僅 GG scan machine	PS 亦 monitor concurrent software
期待 confiscation + mass reimbursement model	PS confiscate 但 publicity 不同

Lowest-risk cross-room protocol： client closed、all reference away、decision from memory only——strict 於任一 platform minimum，但 immune migration mistake。

Quick compliance guide

選 primary room；遵守該 platform rule，非另一 platform：

若你 play…	Non-negotiable
僅 PokerStars	no real-time advice；limited preflop chart 僅 as defined；close PS before solver；no randomized sizer
僅 GGPoker	client launch 起 no external assistance；zero chart live；kill remote-access/VM tool；見 air-gap article
Both	處處 obey GGPoker stricter chart rule；PS chart allowance 僅 PS 適用

本文與 policy text 衝突時，operator published term 為準。SEP 20260313 與 PokerStars General Terms 會變——high-stakes session 前查 in-client notification 與 official page。

Bottom line

PokerStars 與 GGPoker 對 RTA 並不 ambiguous——ambiguous 只在你blend 兩 platform policy 時。Stars permit narrow preflop chart；GG forbid all chart。Stars score play against ML model；GG timestamp solver against server clock。兩 network 同 play 須always obey stricter rule。

讀清兩套 policy。按 harder standard play。Cross-platform compliance 非 optional。
