Quick last minute reminder:
Everyone is welcome to play tonight, but if you want your results to count towards the LEAGUE prize pool (with the added $$), you need to transfer $10 to TalkingPoker BEFORE we begin tonight. Also, please post in this thread once you do. I see a couple of people signed up for tonight's tourney who haven't paid their league dues yet. That's fine, but I want to make sure they understand that in order for them to keep any points they might earn tonight, they need to pay up first. Ok, scratch all that. Just dot notification for 2 transfers. So.... who is RaiseOCthulu? Looks like a new member... |

Hmm. I kinda have an idea what collusion is... and, oddly enough, it looks like this:

Wow.... that does look pretty bad. But I don't believe it. I'll chalk it up to a terrible play by RR.
What did you have they Robbie? And how in the wolrd could you fold ANYTHING for those post odds??? |

Okay, here's the UNEDITED HH from my end. I was trying to steal her blinds and she came over the top on my raise...sigh. As I said in the chat, TP has seen Nikki & I play live and hopefully understands exactly how competitive we are. Of course, it could always be argued that the game in Toronto was just a ruse to setup this one hand here in the league.

Well, for 3:1, that's a tough fold to make. Unless she has 88 or 55, you're not in THAT bad of shape, even to an overpair.
I totally believe you, but surely you can see how bad that looks. |

True, but it probably would have also looked bad if I called her and turned over 85. I think either way I was looking bad here. I didn't even THINK about how much I already had in the pot and the pot odds I had. It was a simple attempt at a steal and when she raised I went "fuck!" and clicked fold without really thinking about it.

Well, I know for the most part that you guys are joking, but I do want to make sure. Rob and I are definitely competeing against each other and we both want to win. Of course, we both agree that the best possible out come is for us to place 1st and 2nd (I will argue that I should get first and he will argue that he should
). Anyway, if anyone has any issues with us playing together please let us know. We don't want there to be talk of collusion because it just isn't there. But, there may be someone out there really isn't joking, and if there is and it's going to cause problems, I'm perfectly willing to not play in the league. I really enjoy playing poker with everyone here, but I don't want any hard feelings to come of it. I'm probably being too girly sensitive or maybe just paranoid, but I have to make sure. |

Misc:
1. Rob, it's not a weak attempt at a steal. A steal is raising with nothing, representing something, and hoping to take the pot or blinds down. Trust me you don't need cards to "legitimately steal" because if you had cards, then it'd be a value bet. 2. Even if you make the raise with 85 and you're popped, you can't let it go here. Your cards are likely live, it's not much more to call, you can knock her out and get closer to 2nd place. 3. I'm not accusing. Honestly, I don't think you two were colluding but the situation is just... there. Come to think about it: even if you two were colluding, I don't think the Robbie / N1kita tandem really scares anyone.gg.

And not only that, but it would have been just as easy for you and I (or any other two people) to collude last night on AIM or the phone, etc. We're playing in a league where everyone knows each other (to some level), so we can only trust each other to not collude. IMO, there's more pride on the line here than anything else, so I don't think it's going to be a problem.
OH, and Robb is such a freaking luckbox, he doesn't need to collude. |

Yea
It will take a team working together to take me out... OH, what no it didn't. Scratch that last comment from the record.
I trust you all - that's how I roll. Collude - that's a funny word... hee, hee. Son-of-a. Last edited by ashmc2; 05-03-06 at 06:24 PM. |
