Default Re: Borgata $20/$40, Two Staking Opportunities

If you do choice number one when seated at the same table, that honestly sounds like collusion to me. Even if you didn't deliberately cheat, you are not going to care whether he or you wins a pot, and will prefer he wins to another player and may play accordingly, even if not intentionally. Even choice two would be a little sketchy if seated together at the same table.

It's pretty disappointing that no one picked up on this.

The viability of the games depends on their integrity. We lose that, the recreational players will go away (I know I will) and without us tourists, all you pros will have to beat up on each other. My advice: earn some money and stake yourself, get staked legitimately, or get a second job.

I'm all for integrity but I'd like to ask anyone who feels that OP's option one is possible collusion, whether you would ban a husband and wife who sat down at the same table. All of that money comes out of the same bank account (typically).
