Not accepted, even if accepted they will terminate your adsense and deindex your site.

What are you defining as "hack?" Are they scripts / warez / etc. where you can essentially cheat the game or get free virtual items? Those won't fly. But if it's a site with techniques / tricks / clever ideas that improve the game, then those are totally fine. There are a ton of sites dedicated to Minecraft hack-type things.

In general, the gaming niche doesn't do very well on advertising, unless you're a huge site like IGN. For IGN, an advertiser will pay $10+ CPM for a banner ad campaign and $25+ CPM for video.

I would stick to finance, health, insurance or something similar if you want to push the advertising angle.

Are you sure its AdSense?
As not every ad there is from Google, it could be another network.
Also, as my colleague mentioned above there are different definitions on the 'gaming hack sites' so it might not be against AdSense (if it has AdSense).
