Clearly all the facts are not being divulged here.Im sure DTD have valid reason to come to their conclusion and its not a decision that has been taken lightly.
Pretty certain most mates are not going to take each other on playing in the same house in the same sat on the same table for a 1k seat when there are several seats as prizes.I think we can all agree on that.
What if this is NOT just one satellite where the said two players have played under the very same circumstances ?
There are probably a lot more hand histories from previous sats that show a pattern that would quite easily be picked up as soft play , collusion, whatever you want to call it . This decision would then make a lot more sense.
It does appear that these two guys are going to struggle to prove their innocence if they are getting no response from DTD or Ipoker other than your banned gtfo.
Makes the sats not really worth playing if your mates playing it too, just incase he folds the AA on you when a seat is locked up
