Well, at the risk of sounding... weird, I've played a helluva lot more hands than that over the last forty years, and I play just fine. Years ago if you played for higher stakes, you played in underground games or in Nevada, and believe me, collusion was a fact of life. Everyone knew it, kept their eyes open, and it would actually get to be funny -- you'd go to some game in Cowpie Oregon and the table would be jiggling with all the signals back and forth. Ask anyone from those days.

Yes it happens on-line; no big deal but it's annoying.

Collusion is impossible at wpex because having two people connected at the same time for more than 5 minutes without a disconnect/folded hand is damn near impossible.

The site sucks I was pushing any two in a sng today because I knew my next 3 hands would be folded for me.

I see THE HUD are rumor mongering. Lovely.

But the fact is that collusion is normally pretty obvious. Skilled colluders exist but are -EV as compared to playing alone.

If you are still human, you will probably recognize that the same two are in pots together often (this involves 'intuition') and make a note on each player stating such. This would be useless at largers sites, as you will never play them again. After all...PARTY HAD 20 COLLUDING BOTS GO UNNOTICED ON IT'S SITE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS!!! Semi-bots have left WSEX because they refuse to play without PokerAce's mind feed. The truth is obvious.

If you check out the action on WSEX, you will notice it is substantially softer, though probably not for long unfortunately [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] I disagree with the THE HUD's message that, without PokerAce holding your hand collusion is unnoticable.

If i wanted to collude I would probably try it out at wpex first. i wouldn't lose rake when in pots with any partners, the player base is small so playing regularly with the same people would not look suspicious, they take no rake so they probably spend little money on security, and any suspicious players have no means of looking over past hand histories to confirm any suspicions.

All good points, but you're missing the best of all. WPEX software is tailored to suit colluders: after you fold your card graphics remain to more easily allow you to check what cards your virtual teammates have mucked.
