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.
