n fact i am of the opinion that it is just as bad for two players to agre eto check it down even without a third player all in

I don't think there is anything wrong with this at all...

Nothing wrong with it in a cash game. Different story in a tournament, where two players can influence the prize money EV a third player not in the hand.

So you think its Okay for two players to bet out the other players then just agree to check it down? How about if they bet out their opponents and then agree to chop it?

No...


I said there is nothing wrong with two people checking it down (and expressively agreeing to do so) in a HU pot.

Dice
BTW at your casino verbal declaration of a check down is not allowed anymore. Pre or Post flop

what's reaally the difference. why would you object them chopping, but not agreeing to check it down.

i never said i objected to chopping unless there was a third person who was bet out and then they chopped. That is pure collusion.
