There seems to be a fairly easy way to answer this. Email PokerStars or Full Tilt, or any site you play at, and ask them the protocol. It might even be in the terms of service or end user license agreement, or whatever they call it. I find it highly unlikely that if you emailed them and posed the question "Do you allow multiple people to contribute to one player's decisions occuring during a hand?" that any one of them, assuming it's a legit online poker room, would say they allow it. They allow PokerTracker and similar programs because they create personal databases based on hands that have previously occured (albeit very recently). And although there is no one set definition of collusion (that I am aware of), I could easily see the input of multiple people's opinions on the decisions of a hand currently being played to be classified as collusion.

My apologies to premier for sort of hijacking his thread. Let's leave his thread for finding his 'buddies'.

Sometime in the next week I will try to compile some of this and start a thread specifically on the subject of coaches, buddies and partners. I think it is a subject worthy of it's own space as this is the kind of material that anti-gaming folks would love to use as ammunition in their fight against online gaming.

A good coach would never tell you how to play the hand, rather he/she would give you ways to think about the hand that would lead you to make the profitable decisions.
