Hi all,
I see people talk extensively about collusion on-line (with or without bots) on other thread and forums (RGP, all the time). Most of the time they refer to cash games, naturely. I can't remember any specific reference to tourneys, and especially not SNGs.
I had this one occasion on Stars, where I suspected collusion between 2 players at a 10$ SNG. (we were 5 left, and they acted a bit funny). When the game was over I contacted support, and they made a deep research about those two. The answer was that they both play a lot, and it was maybe their 2nd game together, so collusion is not very probabale. They said they checked other information, I guess hand history and such, and are sure there was no intent collusion. I believe them.
But that was just an excuse for asking this:
How much collusion do you think takes place in SNGs? Just in general, not in relation to specific sites. Obviously, I don't mean this to be a thread on how to collude on SNG's, so people will get ideas. I just want to discuss this in general. I hope you won't flame me for this, I only mean good... /images/graemlins/smile.gif
