You and I could do the same thing... as could anyone on here. Don't need to be relatives to share hole cards and chat on IM during games.

As long as it's out in the open i don't care because I can just adjust but if they've been sitting at the same table without informing people there's a problem. At a minimum they should advise the table as soon as they sit togeather. Granted lots of softplaying goes on at SBR tables but you should really get some guidelines down.

Besides the softplaying I haven't seen much collusion TBH except at 1 final table I was at but I thought it was too funny/pathetic to bother dealing with.
If someone believes they have evidence of collusion between any posters, they should send a PM to an Admin or an email to forum@sportsbookreview.com along with the pertinent info and it will be looked into.
