[NYplayer]

I'll let you decide if it's fishy:


NYPlayer is at seat 0 with $23383.50.
dumbanimal is at seat 3 with $26521.
piejay is at seat 4 with $14503.50.
hogbird is at seat 5 with $36636.
The button is at seat 3.

piejay posts the small blind of $150.
hogbird posts the big blind of $300.

NYPlayer: Js Jh
dumbanimal: -- --
piejay: -- --
hogbird: -- --

Pre-flop:

NYPlayer raises to $600. dumbanimal re-raises to
$900. piejay folds. hogbird calls. NYPlayer
re-raises to $1200. dumbanimal calls. hogbird
calls.

Flop (board: 9d 9h 4d):

hogbird checks. NYPlayer bets $300. dumbanimal
calls. hogbird calls.

Turn (board: 9d 9h 4d 8s):

hogbird checks. NYPlayer bets $600. dumbanimal
raises to $1200. hogbird re-raises to $1800.
NYPlayer folds. dumbanimal re-raises to $2400.
hogbird calls.

River (board: 9d 9h 4d 8s 9c):

hogbird checks. dumbanimal bets $600. hogbird
calls.



Showdown:

dumbanimal shows Jd Td.
dumbanimal has Jd Td 9d 9h 9c: three nines.
hogbird shows Qh As.
hogbird has Qh As 9d 9h 9c: three nines, ace kicker.

this is eerily similar to the other hand

at first glance this would not appear to be collusion because of the showdown. in a casino that would be correct (especially HP where you might actually get killed in the parking lot) but on line the teams are so greedy and can restart if banned so quickly that they brazenly inflate pots to get even more action on thier future graft. they must have been sure there is no way the showdown would break the game.

imo this doesn't look as bad or blatent as the previous one posted by josh b/c AT LEAST one of them had a good draw and could have been trying to clean up outs...but the AQ was certainly played odd.

Sick. This is blatant.
