i understand what you are saying about stopping deals I dont like taking them my self.
But iI think barring someone is a little bit over the top.
An easy way around it is to not have the payout so top heavy.
A tournie i won the other night i took down 1200 and 2nd took 800 but 3rd only 300. So as you can imagine as soon as we got to last 3 or 4 players start asking for deals. When i got the old evil look when i declined. What i cant understand when i held 70% of the chips.
Thats why I would like to see deals stopped but unless the payout becomes more level. so deals dont seem so appealing.

If it is made clear to the players that dealing is not permited and then they deal and are caught then barring is absolutley necessary. It seems over the top and harsh but it sends a message about quality, fairplay and standards. As Rob rightly says you only need to do it once and everyone toes the line.

I agree. But if we have rules they will be enforced. What the penalties are will have to be decided. I was just quotng an example, not reality. |

Do you think i would be right in saying that you would probably be the only poker club/casino in the world that bans deals?
Thats a big break from the establishment.

y'know a lot of deals get done because its fricking 5am and you've been playing for 10 hours straight, and people are losing the will to live. There's only so long you can function. I remember chubbs doing his nut at me 3 to go in a walsall festival a few years back 4am in the morning when I was a wee poker beginner. I wanted to play though to the end, but with burnley jon giving us grief because he had to wait for a lift, I finally acceded to the chubbster's cries...
If anything else an understanding of a good tournament structure helps preclude deals. I look forward to this at dtd.

IMO Rob, unless you are adding money to the prizepool,
I don't think anyone has the right to tell players what to do with what is after all their money.
Of course if one of the remaining players does not want to deal there can be no deal.

Jammer you finally acceded to the chubsters cries did you, ok cant wait till i bust your ass again blind like i did in luton but instead of the bubble this time gonna do it in the first level so you got plenty of time to lick your wounds
But if you remember right i had 60 % of the chips and only wanted to do a deal for the young lady who was 9 months pregnant because she was skint and you had outdrawn her a few times with your hit & hope tactics. Now if you can not show a bit of compassion now and again then you are taking your poker to serious,please come back to the real world Jammer you fish
