Is saying \"Check it down\" collusion?
Is this collusion:
I'm short and push all in late in trny and get 4 calls. 3rd caller says in chat "Lets check it down, right?" (I had A6, flop ace and get sucked out by 67 on river. No one bets, not even trips 7's on river-but regardless of outcome this is either allowed or not allowed and I'd like to know) Is this collusion or not? I was told it is and write FTP an email. What would happen if this was WSOP? What would FTP do about it anyway? (If it matters, I would still be left with a med sized stack, but have a shot, or maybe at least cash higher)

Re: Is saying \"Check it down\" collusion?
Personally, I think it would be considered collusion if it was online. But that happens so much in ring games live.
GL with getting FTP to respond on this quickly. The fact remains that you would have still been knocked down because who is to say that further betting would have happened. Wouldn't that guy still make trip's if there was no action?

[ QUOTE ] Is this collusion [/ QUOTE ] Yup. [/ QUOTE ] Technically, it probably is collusion. But most likely, it is just some idiot stating what everyone else was going to do anyways, as just about everyone knows you don't bet unless you have a hand in this situation.

But the main reason I didn't is I dont see what it will accomplish? The trny is over already and the guy apologized. He claims he didnt know. I'm thinking this kind of "subtle" collusion really has no recourse. A stern warning might stop him next time, but it won't stop the next guy who doesn't know.

Re: Is saying \"Check it down\" collusion?
FTP claims they'll do something about it if you ask them, but they really seem to just give warning after warning. It's unfortunate that they don't take cheating more seriously.
