LOL, Bergen is well known as the capital of online collusion.

It's probably best to search for Bergen in the archives. I don't have any personal experiences but from what I've heard from this guy who knows a guy is that they collude yet still play badly. But lumping all players from one city together is probably a mistake.

I bet they were at the same table because they spoke the same language.

Do you have any idea of the population of Bergen? I don't, but from what I've heard, they're colluders.

But don't make this a rule of thumb, I've sat down on a table with 2 or 3 players from London before (usually during the daytime), and even been accused of collusion myself, when I jammed my draw against another Londoner's TPTK! There are 8.5 million people in London, how unlikely is it that there will be more than one at one table?

Anyway, don't just assume that players are colluding because they're from the same city.

I often see more than one player from Goteburg or Gothenborg or something like that at a table, and this is usually fine.
