What makes you say that this starts with turn action or that the Ks was visible to the user before we see the showdown? Am I just missing it? Is there another version of this somewhere? Is there audio that I'm not hearing? TIA
Yeah man if you go back to my first post and actually read it you will see that I said it's on the original video which is on Joey's Instagram. You have to listen to the audio. The hero is talking during the video and explains that the board was originally K79. Did you even read my post? I explained all of this and the action that we see starts on the turn card

I agree that they're clearly incompetent, but I disagree that it's hard to break down. All you have to do is watch the video. It explains itself.

This was an mtt i was in last night right before registration ended and is extremely common in many mtts. if you watched the table playout it was very clear the entire table was max tanking and ended with most of them cashing. Until ACR does something, If you play in an mtt right now with less than 300-400 entries, you have to accept 10% of the players cashing are these players colluding.

There are at least six players on that table that are colluding and they do it all day long, every day. They register at the last minute and all within 2 or 3 seconds. Malesynchuk is the first one to seat, that is where they should start asking questions.

Like i said man it's pretty simple. I never said this was standard anywhere. I actually said it's a terrible glitch that needs to be fixed. However, I wouldn't expect you to know that because if you still don't understand what I'm saying then it's clear you didn't read my initial post on it. Read it. Slowly. I promise you will understand eventually. If not shoot me a message and I'll put it in ding dong terms

I don't think were that far apart I admit I don't understand cards change from the flop to the turn, then again river, in the middle of the hand, but I agree it's "it's a terrible glitch" last post I will make on this as there is a Whole Universe to Live . . .

A user at another forum claims she/he was banned from ACR for using the Late Registration exploit, but is not admitting to collusion.

I think most players using this strategy are probably explicitly colluding.

But "implicit collusion" - people registering late and timing down because they see that others are doing it and profiting, without communicating directly with those other players - seems possible for at least some players using this trick.

In any case, WPN has created and failed to correct a situation where players are able to cash consistently by just joining late and stalling, which is frustrating and unfair to players trying to play real poker.

This is a thread in the "about the forum" section of 2+2. Basically posters are calling for 2+2 to pull WPN's partnership with 2+2. If you have real info on cheaters of any kind you can post them there. Please post data and experiences but don't post opinions on pure speculation so we don't clutter it. 2+2 mods are monitoring it and responding in the thread to figure what exactly is going on so we shouldn't fill it with rumors and such.

Another thing to remember, ACR has BY FAR the most new accounts/new regs popping up constantly. You dont see this on stars and other sites.

It would be great to get more feedback in that thread, all the more so if you read what's already been posted before doing so.

But what we don't need is more "real info on cheaters of any kind" posted there - that's what this thread is for. That thread is for discussion of 2+2's relationship with WPN.

TBH, what I think would be most helpful to us, 2+2 members, and WPN, would be a little separation of some of the issues here. For example, the MTT late reg issue seems pretty well established - I think someone with a good handle on it should start a thread in the WPN forum where those who play there but don't find themselves in NVG that often can be made aware of it and give their own feedback - and hopefully WPN can respond and deal with it.

The signal to noise ratio in this thread is pretty poor, which isn't uncommon for NVG threads. I think it's good that this thread is here, but a thread like this is often going to have difficulty getting to the bottom of any one particular issue.

Thanks for posting Bobo and filtering what gets posted in that thread better than I could. You have always been awesome and a big help in the internet poker section when I needed back in the day on my old account pre-hacked days.

I think it's better all lumped

when we regs were begging for wpn to do something in small direct threads notmuch came of it.

no matter what we do it seems as if wpn doesn't care anyways so I think the views and post counts are better to help protect future players from being cheated fromwpn allowing an unfair game situation

I'm actually serious, not trolling here.

I think those ITM numbers are impossible for large field MTTs unless you are colluding.

But, it's not just their ITM % that is damning. Did you watch the vid?
Its possible. If you have a mtt with 1000 entrence and 150 itm, you will have an abnormal itm% if you allowed to enter at 152 players left (and stall while others dont).
I watched the videos and dont see evidence of colluding between these guys (but maybe they are) so just tell me what i missed.

This really needs it's own thread.
Maybe there are models that i'm unaware of but ICM model says you wrong.

There's probably advantages and disadvantages to both ( reg early or late) but that's kinda off topic.

I'm definitely not trying to defend these guys but all i'm trying to say is if you want to know if someone is colluding in tournament watch if they softplay each other (ex: calling allin vs each other less often than vs other people etc).
