Message: [QUOTE="fletchdad, post: 1487991, member: 65205"] I understand what you are saying here, but would like to know what others think about this. I done see it as collusion based on OPs choice of wording. It doesent sound like they are chating while playing, tho I would guess there is chat going on after the game, so his coach can go through some hand analysis with him. He said he was nervous playing against his coach, so I suspect softplaying is not going on. OP may take a re raise from his coach as a danger signal, as he respects the coaches play, but since I believe they are playing the same games so his coach can spot some leaks, than I suspect his coach would play rough against him as against any other player. Hes not a good coach if he does not exploit weak play and point it out after the game. Since they obviously are familiar with each others playing style, they will make decisions accordingly, but is this not just poker, keeping tabs on how someone plays and then making your plays based on your knowledge? As long as no comunication or softplaying or any other breach of rules is happening, is this still a form of breach of ettiquet? I dont see it so yet. Sorry for the hijack, I will get back on to OPs point - or not as I dont play LR games at all, but am now from this thread a bit piqued to see what they are like. I have always avoided them since I didnt know anything about them, but gained a bit of knowledge here. It seems most late comers - from what I have read here, and correct me if this is not true - are better players who dont like stacking of against spewtards, ( I do lol) with the occasional spewtard late as well. I would personally want to start on time to have a stack edge against the better LR players. I have read in other threads that the oppinions on LR games go both ways. I will try to do some and check back here. And I would view a regular starting stack as a disadvantage as the blinds are higher, would that not mean actually starting at a slight to large disadvantage equity wise? [/QUOTE]
