When you trust a third-party tool to help you multitask on the tables, you probably don’t expect it to multitask for hackers too.
According to PokerNews, Jurojin Poker, a software suite designed to streamline online poker, had its update packages compromised between June 2025 and June 2026.
The attacker slipped in a remote-access tool to gain a peek at players’ screens, exposing hole cards and compromising about 30 high-stakes players.
Jurojin says they’ve contacted everyone affected and have taken steps to stop it happening again. Their statement reads:
This week, our investigation found that between June 2025 and June 2026, an attacker was able to intermittently replace the update package delivered to one specific group of Jurojin users with a tampered version. June 2026 was the last compromised month. Some of those packages included a remote-access tool.
So if you were wondering why your bluffs weren’t working, maybe check your software before your strategy.
