Default Re: What % of major tourney players are backed by sheets/bax?

[ QUOTE ]

also, when i interviewed todd brunson he told me that he and his father check it down when it is just the two of them in a hand. is that team play, soft play, cheating, a father/son thing, or just a regular part of the game?

[/ QUOTE ]

it's soft play, but it affects the way hands are played out. knowing that its going to be checked down if it gets heads up changes the way you play the hand before it gets heads up - unless you're deliberately not playing to maximize your EV. it shouldn't be allowed (but there's not much you can do about it).
