It will look like a bridge game.

Seriously though, with proper placement of about 12 chips, you ought to be able to communicate your hand to your partner using a system that's completely undecipherable by your opponents.

I'd say the team that comes up with the best undetectable collusion is the favorite.

Special Rules

Communication: Players are NOT allowed to discuss strategy at the table, whether they are in the hand or not. They are NOT allowed to indicate their hands, regardless if they are telling the truth or lying. In addition, any kind of obvious signaling, similar to baseball signs or sign language, will also be penalized. The only type of communication permitted are any unenforceable gestures such as chip placement, a player scratching his head, adjusting his or her sunglasses, etc.

[/ QUOTE ]

It doesn't even look like communication is that hard, though this rule looks like a bitch to enforce.

[/ QUOTE ]

When I'm in the BB, I tilt my cards slightly to one side if I have a bottom 1/3 hand, middle 1/3 is straight ahead, top 1/3 is slightly to other side. There's tons of subtle ways to cheat in this thing if you were devious/intelligent about it (and not overly greedy).

C'mon, didn't anybody learn anything from watching Tilt?

Does anyone else think this whole thing is absolutely horrible for the game? Is this going to be televised? People on here were going nuts about Gold's antics in the WSOP because the casual player would see him on TV and think that what he did was OK. How many fish are going to see this collusion contest on TV and get ideas?

Or maybe I am just missing something? I admit I have no knowledge of this "event" other than this thread.
