Most 2+2ers don't even think colluding takes place in poker... anywhere ... ever... every-time I've brought it up I've been crucified.

How about jail for card room operators that constantly let rules violations slide because they don't want to offend their gang of regulars?

I got in an argument with one of the floor-men at the Mirage for this very issue.

He let a ruling slide that cost me a large pot... it was BS and the dealer knew it.

I acted very inmature and yelled at him that if I was a local and/or had gray hair the whole thing would have gone down different.

The dealer actually laughed out loud and it started a big commotion. The floor-man laid into the dealer... I was so pissed I called the floor-man a [censored]-sucker... tipped the dealer $50 and left

Excellent point! Cripples good play everywhere it happens, online and in B&M's. A lot of faith here in "tendency awareness" software. Geesh, everybody who used to play PP/PS s'n'g's at UF AND UM ganged up using cell phones. Have to be intentionally blind not to see it. But, wow, you have to be bold to bring it up in this forum or in a real-world card room. See it sometimes in the smaller rooms in Florida, especially at final tables in tourneys where friends are chip dumping to shut out new-comers. True, true, true.

Is there any law, in Vegas or elsewhere, that could be used to prosecute colluding poker players? I don't think so. This pretty much falls into the same category as card counting teams.

Not to hijack the thread but collusion is at least unethical and probably illegal. Card counting definately is not as decided by the courts in all US jurisdictions.
