I won't name names, however, i'd love to.
2000 NL game on Party last night.
1 raiser to 100 preflop.
4 callers of 100 including me.
Hero has Ah Qh
Flop 2h 3h 7h
Villain in the Big Blind fires bet of 333 into 400 pot.
Having the nut flush I raise all in.
Villain calls and pairs up to make a full house of 333 over 22. Tell me this is not a tip to the other players, including the raiser that he has a set of 3's? A bet of 333 is so obvious its sick.. I'd like your thoughts on the logic behind this bet of 333. Collusion at its finest? I know there is fishy stuff going on at the 2000 NL game.. your thoughts here? Thanks - Hotkelly

He probably thought it was an amusing amount to bet given his hand. No colluders would use such an impractical method of sending information to one another when they could easily just use a telephone.

Seems almost to obvious to be collusion but there is no harm in emailing party and having them look into the hand.

Why IM someone or talk on the phone when you can put cryptic messages in your bet size. Iron clad way to cheat, I can't believe you found out.

I'd e-mail party immediatly

Oh yeah I forgot to mention that there is about a 1% chance you even think about e-mailing party if you won the hand.

Thanks for your sarcastic input.. If I was looking for that I would have put a quarter in the gypsy lady machine that tells you your fortune and asked her.

Just coincidence that a 2/3 pot bet is the same as his hand. But we don't believe in coincidence do we?

I'm a regular at full ring $2000 so I'd appreciate a PM on "the fishy stuff".

The pot is 400, not 500. Just a coincidence that his 83.25% pot bet is the same as his hand.
