Message: [QUOTE="CallmeFloppy, post: 5338485, member: 134973"] This is a form of collusion and fits in the form of cheating. Some people have asked "what is the difference if I do that or if I am avoiding a player that is hot" The difference is the intent of your actions. Poker is a game of single players playing for their own benefit, not for the benefit of their opponent. When you intentionally choose to play in a way that benefits someone else, you are in collusion with that player and playing outside the rules of the game. Even if no one else is in the hand, for a tournament you are still affecting the flow of chips in the game. That could be difference of someone making or missing the money or a pay level. It may not affect anyone else in that hand, but the ripple affects very well could. [/QUOTE]
