Here's a simple question.

Do you think it's possible to play a fair game of on line cash poker, or is it inevitable that there will be groups of players sitting in the same room or colluding via skype?

Yes, it is possible.

Yes, it is possible.

OK, let me rephrase.

Is it likely?

Yes, it's likely you will be able to play a 'fair' game of online cash poker.  The room, game-type, the level in terms of buy-in, etc., will influence the likelihood of the game not being 'fair'.  If you're playing HU cash, then it's far less likely Wink

Considering the fact that colluding would be easy, the risk of prosecution almost zero, and that where there's money there is virtually always corruption, what makes you so confident?

I was going to comment on this but Kinboshi had already told me what he was going to post so I didn't bother.

local cash game hero arrived at the Casino and announced that he'd just won a seat in a satellite having been in chat on facebook with another of the players throughout the final table...

I've come to the conclusion that I'm not getting enough sleep. I slept for 8 hours last night for the first time in ages and it was wonderful. This morning I felt like I could bite a tiger.

I've been burning the candle at both ends lately. Unfortunately, that soon takes its toll when your candle is short to start with.

Note to self. Must slow down.

As I am often a personal witness/source of donation, I think they gotta be a fair bit more P than L :p
