WCOOP collusion?
"WCOOP is the real deal By Steve Rosenbloom
<font color="green">"Panella86" cut a deal with "Vendetta" and "tralala." Each would take more than $500,000 of the prize pool, with $50,000 and the bracelet at stake.</font> I don't play online- is it common to even split the vast majority of the prize pool 3-ways and play for a pittance? Were the chip stacks all around even? Because I surely would be looking hard at hand histories and previous rounds after seeing this, if I'd been in the WCOOP main event.

Re: WCOOP collusion?
You're kidding right? People make deals at the end of tournaments all the time. Live and on-line. I would have been more suprised if they didn't make a deal with such huge money at stake for the top few spots.

Plus they tried to cut a deal with the 4th and 5th place finishers... both of whom refused to deal.
So if they were colluding, they were doing a crappy job!

Re: WCOOP collusion?
First consider that there were 1400 players + in the event. How likely is it that these 3 players knew each other? Not very.

The deal is overseen by Stars support (in this case...Lee Jones was there to supervise the deal). This was x-posted over in another forum too?? It's a really ridiculous question for even one forum..much less two.

LOL. You have how many posts? GoT [/ QUOTE ] What makes it even funnier is that while most of his posts are in OOT/Sports his largest number of on-topic posts seem to be in the MTT forum.
