Odd play someone gives up blinds..what do u think?

[RFJ]

I posted the last two orbits of a game on http://www.maddeuces.com/5.txt It involves someone giving up the blinds to JJsGramma on the last orbit. I just wanted players opinions about the play..

[RFJ]

I thought i'd clear this up a bit..this is the hand in question.. step level 4.. four advance. 5th stays on lvl 4. 6th drops to level 2

No matter what that guy held, he made a mistake. No hand is worse than the 4 to 1 odds he's getting vs a random hand.

[RFJ]

Yes, I know he was getting odds. I'm pretty sure kingpin knew he was getting the right odds too. I'm just saying in light of recent events with people cheating. Do u think he gave up that pot to allow JJsGrandma to advance to the next level. Asking for people's opinions

This is odd. What were the results, did this give JJsGramma enough to move on?

[RFJ]

Well I put up 2 orbits to the game at http://www.maddeuces.com/5.txt But JJsGramma did not move up.. The next time he was in the blind another player had monsters KK. and he was busted out. However, this move gave him an extra orbit. The reason I thought this was more odd is because I know Kingpin plays a lot and he's even in the leaderboard so I know he knows odds. Whether he did it because it was his friend or what..I don't know, but I do know it's an odd play even for a novice player that didn't know the odds.

[LinusKS]

The only explanation is that he wanted JJsGramma to stick around, or that he wasn't paying attention.

I'd definitely ask Party to look into it.

or that he was disconnected.

im pretty sure sure "Deanbegins" was screaming at his computer after this.

I cant see logical reason for him to fold here, unless he was disconnected as Lori suggested.

[RFJ]

Actually he did not get disconnected because he folded way too fast and after he made the move he just started saying something like i'm in so I can do whatever i want..and started laughing..I did inquire with PP and they told me that they did not find it to be collusion. However, they responded way too fast for them to have done a thorough investigation. They responded within less than 24 hours.
