Default Party\'s Collusion? Same player at 2 seats at same table??

So, I open up a Party table tonight...

Two players have oddly similar names: "gooseduck" and "gooseduck123".

Weird.

So, I check their locations. Both from "eugene" (!?!?)

Wtf??






The odds of two complete strangers with such similar names, from the exact same town, sitting at the exact same table (out of around 70,000 players and 8,000 different tables) ..... ?


I think I should send Party off an email, no?

Thanks. You know, I can't remember. I got it off someone from this site, though ... I'll see if I can dig it up.

Maybe: a few years ago when there were fewer accounts at party, a guy spots gooseduck123 and determines that he is a total fish. The guy observes him for a couple of days and notices that he has a deep bankroll. In order to isolate this gigantic fish, the guy creates a screen name gooseduck and fakes his location to "Eugene" so people will avoid sitting down on their table, and he can get a nice heads up action.

Hello,

I opened up one of your tables tonight and noticed two players with oddly similar names: "gooseduck" and "gooseduck123."

I then noticed they were both from the same location: "Eugene".

This cannot be a coincidence.


Table: XXXXX $10/$20 (6 max).

Hands: #XXXXXXXXXX, #XXXXXXXXXX, #XXXXXXXXXX

I witnessed the above three hands before they both left, but they were both sitting out for those hands. Regardless, you should be able to look up those hands that occured prior and see if there was any collusion, etc.


I find this especially strange since Party is supposed to have software that prohibits a player from sitting at the same table under two different seats.



I would like to be notified of the result of this inquiry.

I look forward to your reply.

Thank you.


Adam Stewart

If these guys are colluding, don't you think they would be smarter than to make it so obvious? I am not saying cheats are smart, but this is just dumb.

I know what you mean.

it's just really odd, though.


Definitely not a coincidence.
