Default Re: Notorious online cheat caught colluding in WSOP PLO?

I had a dream not long ago where i got caught 'colluding' by letting a short stack survive on the final table bubble just so i could mug the other players.

Checking the nuts and letting a short stack survive is not clear cut collusion.

Fwiw, ive no idea what this case is, any previous "notorious cheat" stuff or anything, but in a general sense letting short stacks survive is a very valid strategy in the right situation.

Advanced slow playing technique -- a lot of you more noobish posters wont understand, but it's much more deceptive than checking OOP. Also great for meta game, because the next time you check behind on the river they may just muck their hand, assuming you have the nuts again.

That's not a rumor, and one of his accounts was locked from Party for cheating the 1k single tables.

Zeejustin is a Chior Boy compared to him. Ironically ZeeJustin knew the extent of his cheating in party sitngoes and complained.

Cheating is bad enough, but he's done a lot worse to people than just cheat online poker.

I also received reliable information that Farnood in fact had 10% of Persson from an earlier swap at the table. There is no doubt this was collusion. I just wonder whether the details as they played out are in fact true.

and if hes chipleader its not an obvious cheat.

if 1 guy has 1 chip it could possibyl allow the chipleader to steal a lot if making the final table mattrs a lot to the guys or the jump in prize money is very big.

You would be correct as it is a common tactic in STT play, but the caliber of player Farnood is dictates he would not understand this at all. Given that he also had a percentage of the player involved it constitutes collusion. Both players should be disqualified.

Wait, why should the short stack be DQ'd? Cause someone checked the nuts behind him? This is pathetic if the short stack gets DQ'd for someone else's play who has 10% of him.

I always love seeing this guy complain about something. If anyone sees him ask him about the $100 he owes me.

???? Because they are both cheating? DUCY?

If I take an illegal drop unknowingly in the open, and my best friend who is my playing partner and marker who knows I incorrectly dropped and doesn't say anything...does that mean I shouldn't get disqualified just because my marker signed off on my card?

I think with your logic ZeeJustin is a honest guy who only cheated a little and accidentally so it is no problem.
