Re: Heads up agreement?
If instead of getting all in, those two players had folded (after putting in, say, $100), the two remaining players are free -- as heads up live game players -- to check, bet, chop the pot, run the board twice, etcetera.
Assuming the players' good faith, I'm not sure I see the difference or the problem.
And the fact is, colluding players don't want to get to the end; one of the colluders will fold to a river bet in an attampt to keep his hand concealed. (Although I recently played at a riverboat in East Chicago, Indiana, where the rule was that any player, once each dealer shift, could ask to see any hand, no matter when during play the player mucked.)
