I'm surprised that this hasn't been mentioned yet, but the biggest problem with being colluded against is that you will need cards to win a hand. Not only that, but the colluding team is 2x more likely to hit the board than you are. And they ARE often getting good implied odds from you.

You can't draw profitably b/c your implied odds are not what they seem to be.

It is much more difficult to bluff 2 people than 1. It is pretty much impossible if they are colluding and 1 of them has anything of value.

You are basically always going to make the minimum when you win and lose the maximum when you lose.

If you don't understand how to do this, then I'm not going to teach you. You may be right that most cheaters don't maximize their profitability b/c they are lazy or unskilled or whatever. That doesn't mean that there aren't skilled cheaters operating as well.

BTW, why do you draw the line at 3 handed? Why not give them 10 hands if there's no advantage to it?
