PokerBob repeatidly said that the two guys that were getting out of line are just Laggy... I never knew that the characteristics of laggy play was 5 bet preflop... then check fold the flop.

Idiots do stupid things. Thats what makes the game good. Colluders tend to see the river together and split the money in the parking lot, they are generally hesitant to make it obvious on the table.

That's NOT true at all. I think you are a little off on what you know about the colluding world.
Colluders specifically try NOT to see the river together. They NEVER want to give another player in the hand 2-1 odds to draw out against their best hand.
Furthermore, if they see the river together and someone like myself asks to see both cards... the jig is up if the whole table sees that one of the colluders was jamming it all the way with 2-7 off and/or no pair no draw.

My bad, I misstated my thoughts. I should have explained that their goal is to force the mark out of the hand, once they do then one of the two players usually finds a fold on the following street, or on the river if they dont suspect someone will ask to see the hands at showdown. My concept was correct, how I explained it was wrong.
I'm very familiar with colluding techniques, and I'm also one of a handful of people on this forum that has experienced the work of a real-life mechanic (only one time in my life). I'm sorry but it really sounds like this is just sour grapes from you because you got owned in the game.
