When Foxwoods raises the rake to $5, Will everyone from Foxwoods be moving to MS October 1?

I doubt it will make a big difference. Most recreationals (majority of players) don't know what rake is.

I think the question to be asking is "When will Mohegan match Foxwoods' rake?"

Unless they see a massive move of players to their room, 3 months tops.

It all depends. Haven't been there in ages, do the 2-5 regs still collude?

Only the husband/wife or boyfriend/girlfriend who sit next to each other. Three players left the table one day last month when complaint was made and nothing was done about it.

Those other day nits you're referring to are long gone and now colluding at Twin River.

If they're sitting next to each other to collude, they're doing it wrong.

There was a brother/sister inlaw sitting at the same table last night at Foxwoods. Didn't seem to be colluding at all. A lot of people were talking about the rake going up at Foxwoods, saying they were gonna have to try Mohegan.

Ive been playing a while at foxwoods and plan on going to Mohegan after the rake goes up in October. From what I can gauge, it doesn’t seem to bother other players as much as me. I don’t think enough people will switch to put any pressure on foxwoods.
I called Mohegan and they told me they have no plans to change their rake. We’ll see. This might be an edge over Foxwoods that they can use

How are they doing it wrong? When the room openly allows for it there is not even a need to attempt to disguise it. They are doing it very right because they are allowed to sit next to each other and whisper what they folded when the other is in a hand.

The idea is to trap other players between you when one member of the team has a good hand. If you have to verbally tell your partner what your cards are, you suck at collusion. First of all, even rank amateurs can catch you doing it, and secondly, you can't take advantage of positioning to force the mark to put more money in the pot.

Knowing what your partner folded is a tiny advantage. Knowing both your partner's cards and the flop while in the pot with the mark is a much larger advantage.

im not sure how this type of collusion works and how 2 guys would put it into practice effectively. usually the type of collusion i see is 2 guys checking it down HU once others fold, or saying IF U CALL ill check it down with u, and im not sure which type is the more serious offense

They use chip placement to tell their partner what their cards are when they raise pre, so the partner can determine the strength of the hand post flop. partner calls pre flop, and if the flop is right he/she has the opportunity in the right circumstance, to force the mark to put more money in the pot. Probably works better in limit because people expect more semibluff raising OTF.

As to telling your partner what cards you have using your chips, I could probably teach you how to do that in 5 minutes.

Checking in down once heads up between two colluding players makes absolutely no sense. Where do you see an advantage there?

None in a cash game, but there certainly is in a tournament where a 3rd player might be all-in.

Two people checking down weak or medium strength hands in a tournament with a third person all-in is standard and good strategy. Collusion has nothing to do with it.

When you see this I hope you immediately call out the person's hand. If not you're complicit in their cheating.

Last time I saw this happen was about 10 years ago and I informed the floor immediately.

I don't usually play high enough stakes to worry about competent cheaters anyway. rarely higher than than 10/20

Except for when one of them says 'you want to check it down?..' beforehand, which I have witnessed too many times to count.

I didn't say it was collusion. I said it was often an advantage in a tournament where it has zero intrinsic advantage in a cash game. As long as you keep your mouth shut while you're doing it.
