    LOL at the 1997 reference for Planet Poker.

    Mr. Caro's days of relevance are long over. This "rant" reminds me of a grandfather sitting on a rocking chair as the relevant parts of the world have sped up to a level beyond his comprehension.

    As for the article itself...it seems to be pasted together from clips or bits of information that may have been true years ago. It is a difficult read with not much flow. Try reading fortune cookies or a series of mad libs...it produces as much insight without the headache that followed this article.

    A call for an automated system in the 90's or early 00's would be poignant ...now it is just antiquated and shows how out of touch Mr. Caro is.

    Thanks for the link

    Collusion is happening in poker and don't play on shady sites. Not really ground breaking information.

    only play heads up and there's no collusion risk.

    anyone wanna play heads up on bookmaker, 5dimes, acr, doyles room? we can play .50/1, 1/2, or 2/4.

    There is still of risk of collusion; it's just not what you think. Not another player, but another participant.

    A person could be coached on what to do by someone more knowledgeable, so, in effect, the person you think is the same fish you beat for $200 three days ago is now whooping your ass for $1,000 HU.
