Re: Soft Play
Fortunately my wife and I are way too competitive to let this happen...we get great pleasure out of busting each other when we're in a home tourney, even though it's usually -EV for "our" bankroll.
That being said, you just have to use common sense to determine whether softplay or chip-dumping is going on. In your example, with them checking down with two big hands, they're definitely guilty. Same thing if she had called an all-in of his with 72o. With clear-cut cases like this it presents a great opportunity to give a warning since few people will disagree with you; if it's a more marginal situation, just let it slide.
