True, it looks a bit like it, but they really had a secret deal, what`s stopping them to share the money after the show is over? During a tourney it would be a concern (especially after his ridiculous collusion-attempt with his buddy during the WSOP, he should`ve gotten disqualified after the footage came out, if that would be possible), but in a cash game... Not sure if they really wouldve done this during taping of the episode, if they were colluding in some way they`d have saved it for after the show and without the cameras filming it. After all nobody would`ve really lost money in this case.
