Re: Collusion at the World Poker Open?
 
This reminds me of a hand I played in the Fallsview main event.

These two guys were obviously friends and they talked about how they've known each other for years etc.

Anyways Old passive nit raises UTG his friend calls three seats away. Its a HU pot.

Flop is 953
They both insta check
Turn K they both insta check
River A they both insta check

UTG shows KK his friend shows JJ.

ActionJeff, duck and I sort of stare at each other like WTF, and sort of mention it and the guys are like He's the tightest player in the world he's not paying me off. We just sort of drop it at that point because teh guys are terrible and aren't playing many pots with each other and sutff.

OP, it sounds like Williams is just a retard.

However in Eagles' situation I would have a problem.

I saw more checks-in-the-dark on all streets during this tournament (which is the World Poker FINALS, not the World Poker "Open") than I have ever seen in one place before.

Are you talking about in cashgames? Im not sure whether softplaying in cash games when your headsup with a friend is ethical or not, but you cant softplay in a tournament. Maybe its just me but in Eagles situation when both guys are friends its seems like soft playing.
