    In Response to Re: table etiquette : Don't see how it would matter to be honest. Imo if someone tells you what they have, I'd just ignore it and play the hand as if they hadn't said anything. If you're stacking off cos you believed them or because you didn't despite what you'd have normally done if they hadn't said anything, then you've done exactly what they were aiming to get you to do.

    worst bit about it is that collusion would be ridiculously easy. I mean they could actually shout out their hands to eachother lol

    Frank53 It's probably wrong of me to form an opinion of someone from a few posts but in your case I'll make an exception. Unfortunately if I repeated it on here I'd probably get a forum ban.

    In Response to Re: table etiquette : Yes ya right...im thinking of dpositing...got to wait till the wifes out the way!!! As for  being on sky poker! look at the benifits... Massive amount of totally free info...stratergies...tactics...ect... On the other hand, ive been playing live poker for 40 yrs...and onlin poker for about 12...My problem is...i know far to much about how electronic or poker softwhare works! Funny how ive never made money on online poker sites...WHY? Am i a bad player or do i suffer like most of you in that most are losers...For every winner ...there are 1000 losers...Fact! Enter any tournament with 600- 700 runner...my odds of winning are 600-700/1...Would you back a horse with those odds! I doubt that! However will put a few quid on soon ...hope to see you at the tables chap!

    You obviously dont trust your ability. Out of 600/700 runners there will be a lot of bad players and if you believe in your ability you will be better than a lot of the remainder. Especially given your 40 YEARS of experiance. Given this and the fact that poker is very often about probability and fact, why would you not take on those odds, unless of course you dont feel you are a very good player in which case you are as you say, best to not play them!! And before you ask, I would back a horse at 700-1 in a 700 race if half of the donkeys were going to fall and my horse was a lot better than the rest.

    Or...I  dont trust the softwhare, i may come over as a bit of "The big ! am" but far from it, im a quite private bloke!
    I still think at odds of 700/1 is a bit of a lottery...especially giving what ive seen on sky poker tv...mind blowing
    High skills  dont seem to count on electronic poker!

    In answer to this and the quote in this thread

    In my experiance alot of the time they're telling the truth and just want to get off to do a whatever else. Often they're telling the truth. If i call and they get there, then so be it, but i was given an opportunity to get it in ahead with free info and took it. So be it.

    During the live Sky Poker Cash Game Sam Razavi announced on numerous occasions what hand he had.  Can't see a problem with it if you want to tell everyone.  Wether your telling the truth though, well that's up to your opponents to decide.

    What about if there's 3 players involved when someone discloses their hand and the two players your in the hand with know eachother-would you not be concerned that they were colluding? Same situation but you know nothing about the other two-would you be concerned about collusion here?

    If it was allowed to happen how much more difficult do you think it would be to spot collusion?

    I agree, but if the player who mouths off folds, saying he's just mucked the one card that makes your hand, would you carry on or fold?
