Apparently profit sharing = collusion

[targetguy1]

Seriously though
This is quite alarming because anyone that plays in a LL game is considered colluding with other players and can get their account
closed and lose all their money.
My question is, Can Full Tilt use posts on our forum as evidence of colluding?
If so, we can all be in big trouble someday.
Another reason why I only keep the min. bankroll on these poker sites.
They can steal your money anytime they want and you have no legal recourse what so ever.
I will support a FT boycott, just give the word.

boycott would do much to a site like FTP they have a very large player base and a few us not playing there isnt going to hurt them one bit.

my guess is that they were trading funds back and forth splitting profits after a game or few, which could be misconstrued as collusion based on financial aspects of the transactions. But still i have played with each of these guys, did a lil willing and dealing myself, and i know for a fact they dont share cards. We just have sorta a unspoken rule to stay outta each others way.

On the surface this seems pretty bogus to me. And since I know the both of you, I doubt it goes any deeper than the surface.

I've played games with just about every poker playing member on here (many of which I play with regularly) and I won't stop doing so EVER.

Hell, the only reason I play online poker these days is to play games with my old pals on here. You won't catch me in many games without a friend who's playing the same one. So poker rooms can allow that and benefit from my continued play, or they can ban people for no reason and lose a lot of business, while tarnishing their reputation in the process.

Playing with friends online is no different than playing with friends offline. Offline, you learn to respect players and stay out of their way, and the same goes for online. This isn't cheating, it's just smart poker.

When you walk into a local poker room, you see the same faces over and over again, people become familiar with other players, and they adjust their game accordingly.

Poker is an extremely social game that is far more enjoyable with a familiar face or two at the tables!

online poker=you giving your money to a site to hold for you, while you slowly lose it all...and if you dont, this type of thing happens. Which is why i cant say this enough-Don't trust ANY poker sites....ANY! Once they have your money, they can do whatever they want with it.

[kingsnthahole]

I would also ask them for the hand history in which they have proof of you colluding...if the hands look shady, then you're probably screwed, but if you have a viable explanation for these hands, then tell them what you were thinking while making the play. If they give you the BS response they gave you the second time with no out, ask to speak personally with a manager, eg phone or live chat. Everyone gets scared when you ask for a manager.

ya i agree with kings on that if you want your account back or at least your money, then get ahold of some higher authority, preferably by phone, and if they even hint at giving ya crap, unleash the fury.

A boycott would have to a huge set up planned even from players of all forums likely, and it has to be for a perty good reason too, like when the irish guys?? boycotted at pokerstars for some kinda tax deal.

however I still think that stealing money from 2 players that have played there for years with no trouble, never made any kinda huge big bang get rich scheme, maybe a comfortable extra income here and there, then all the sudden ban them, and one who hasnt played for months, is NOT good business practice. Heck im afraid to say how i really feel about it, just in case they find this post and ban me too.
