Re: My $0.02 on the IM/Collusion Digression
[ QUOTE ]
On a more intermediate level cheating I could see two colluders doing the following:
Fish: Has K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and raises UTG
Colluder 1: Has A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and calls in MP.
Colluder 2: Has 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] in BB and calls.
Flop is 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
On the flop, Fish bets, Colluder 1 raises. Colluder one talks to Colluder 2 on TeamSpeak and tells him/her that he gots a bigger flush draw. Both agree that the Fish very likely has a pocket pair and depending on the pair is a favorite in the hand. Colluder 2 decides to fold...

The specific example you mention is easy to detect if poker sites look for it. How often does Colluder2 fold a flush draw on a blank, unpaired flop? Probably not often and if he is doing it when Colluder1 is in hands with a better flush draw, now we have a good case that these two players are colluding.
