Re: Mid Limit Holdem Games in the Bay Area

It's a pretty truthful statement. And to be clear, this is "soft" collusion: The regulars in the 15/30 game do not collude explicitly, which would be exploitable, but when they are in the pot against one another, they will typically check it down or play soft, skipping obvious value bets and raises.

I don't have a problem with soft-playing. If two people want to check it down when they're heads up and I'm out of the hand, I don't care. If people are explicitly colluding and chopping profits that would bother me.
I'm not an expert on counter-collusion, but I would imagine if people are trying to raise you out of a pot, the counter strategy would be akin to how you would play against a table with maniacs.
