MTG Salvation has a great article about avoiding being cheated on tournaments.

I now it’s handy for me ’cause I tend to trust what my opponents are doing, and can only catch them cheating if they are doing something very flagrant!

There are some situations there that I haven’t really thought of, like people deliberately messing your deck so you can get game losses and such.

Cheaters suck, in everything that involves prizes and rewards you get cheaters sooner or later, but for me playing the game for the fun factor, cheating is like someone telling themselves they’re stupid, it means that they can’t win you following the set rules.

That’s why I don’t understand why some people like the game so much but get annoyed by all the rules enforcement. Rules are there to make sure everyone is in equal standing, so every match can be the fairest possible. Sure, sometimes you’ll lose because of the luck factor involved even though your skill is superior to your opponent’s, but that’s Magic, and every game is different (or so it used to be advertised on 4th Edition decks).
