Re: Ethics of taking chips off table
What if its max 10k buy in, he originally bought in for 3k and cashes out for 20k, and comes right back with 10k. Would this be allowed? Mahatma said something about it being a glitch in heads up.

Re: is this collusion or not?
It couldn't be a trap cause SB was all-in. He was getting enormous pot odds. Enough to justify a runner-runner set draw. Smells fishy, but it's more likely just blatant stupidity.
