on-line poker question. would this be cheating, would this give an advantage?

Friday, January 16th, 2009
osto11 asked:


here is the scenerio, 5 players on holdem table. playing for real money. each player has $1000. 4 of them are friends , are in same room, using 4 seperate computers. 4 friends are telling each other what cards they have. 1 player is just someone who happened to be playing. the 4 players agree to split evenly any money won from the single player. would the 4 players be considered to be cheating? would they have an advantage , other than the obvious 4-1 number.
i have never played for real money online because i was concerned that a group might be doing this to defraud me of my money. however, i am still not sure that it gives them them as great of an advantage as it appears.

440 pound stinky.asked to leave

Sunday, January 11th, 2009
djc1175 asked:


An article this morning in the newspaper said in Atlantic City at the Borgata casino (rather highbrow place) a man that weighed 440 lbs was asked to leave because of body odor. He was in a poker room which means he had to pay to play, he might have paid up to $1000 to be in that room.
Where they right in throwing him out?
This guy had been playing 17 hours, that was his excuse for smelling. He asked for a room so he could “freshen up” and was refused.

The legendary Chip Reese?

Saturday, January 3rd, 2009
pokercoach asked:


Tuesday, the poker world erupted with shock and condolences David “Chip” Reese died at the age of 56. He was a legendary cash-game player, three-time WSOP bracelet winner.

“As many have said and will continue to say, Chip Reese was always a gentlemen. He was easily the best cash game and overall poker player around. He has always been one of my favorite players and it is sad that we just lost one of the Poker Greats. He’s in God’s hands now and I know he’ll be winning the Big Game in the Sky” Johnny Chan.

Our heart-felt condolences for his family.

Should we name a poker event after him? (ei the Chip Reese poker classic?) A specific poker hand? A poker room (like Bobby’s room at the Bellagio)

Give me your thoughts, on that. Thank you.

Nice answers everybody. Sabes99, I gave Bobby’s room as an example. I don’t suggest to change the name. But the high stake players often play at the Venitian, so why not a private room there?
