By Jonatan Parski

There are several small points that an opponent can do to attempt to cheat at Scrabble that will go undetected. First of all, there's trying to get better tiles for themselves.

If your opponent is taking tiles straight from the bag while it's on their lap, or you catch them sneaking a peek - they might be cheating.

Some players are very good at "brailling" this tiles, meaning that they can feel with their arms what letter is relating to the tile. If your opponent spends many years fumbling in the bag then maybe you can call them a Scrabble cheat!

If you're actively playing online, the only way might be to know the human being you're playing against properly. If they start using several bizarre Scrabble words that never show up in conversation then maybe you can ask them what madness of the word is always to check if they're cheating.
