It's weird how some people are so emotionally invested in 2+2 (re: 4k+ posts), yet seemingly spend time replying and re-replying to threads like this. We get it, you're hilarious. Your poker game really that good?

No, but I only collude 6-handed or more. I always felt colluding HU was too risky. TLK getting caught proves it.

This was not a good thread. I'm disappointed of you all.

Jokes aside, TLK cheated in two ways:

He was staked for a lot of his HU matches, and colluded to lose and get a cut out of the money from his winning partner.

He also took part in HU-match fixing. There is a lot of online wagering by railbirds on the outcome of these matches, and he would collude to lose while betting against himself.

Online poker wagering IS rigged.

[ QUOTE ]
On a more serious note, HU colluding is a HUGE problem in the lower limits. In my naive days I lost a lot of money from this. I would rail these two guys and see player B get the worst beats over and over, it was absurd. I ended up just feeling to bad for the guy I kept transfering him money. 4 months and $600 later I discover they've been faking the whole time and splitting my money.

[/ QUOTE ]
Let's go play headsup: You purposely continually lose to me, then I'll pretend I have to go to the doctor's or something, and whoever has been watching will think you're an idiot and thus donate their money to you.

I'll transfer you your money back later.

Sometimes you know you're beat, so you just have to heads-up collude pokers on the internets.
