Default Re: I think I colluded and now I\'m pissed

Although following the other players instructions to fold was ethicly questionable, it would be hard for anyone to prove that you are guilty of collusion, if you didn't reply to his request to fold or offer him any information. The player who told you to fold was clearly in the wrong. It is absolutely improper for him to tell others how to play while the hand is in progress. You should have made the play that you felt was best for you. It would be difficult to prove that you were colluding. You could have been planning to fold anyway. In the future, play your hand as you see fit and ignore other players who are trying to get you to collude. Obviously, the playere telling you to fold isn't too bright and maybe doesn't even realize that what he did is unethical. Anybody who is knowingly cheating would be stupid to do it using the chat window, giving Party a record of the collusion. Any deliberate colluder with a lick of sense would use another communication channel.
