    Why has this been moved to area 51?

    I've reported blatent collusion in DYMs before, it took CS a few days to look into it but once they had action was taken to make sure those particular guys wouldn't be able to cheat again.

    i gave up DYMs a long time ago,due to many instances of dodgy laydowns for fractions of a pot,and the limitless amount of odds defying suckouts....

    Entertainment,no,just makes people angry...

    and its funny how even the best players in the world are unable to procure more than a 7% Roi....where 10% is the rake.......funny that...so every game u play , for example 100 DYM..you will get 7% back...if u lucky...
     so you pay £10 to get £7 back....lol....

    My personal experience is that Sky will investigate and deal with the matter effectively within a couple of working days.

    if 110 .....7%=£7.70

    so what u r saying is exactly the same .....

    110 outlay 117.7 back....


    so removing the rake...

    for evry 100 you spend u get 7 pounds back ....

    3 pounds less than the rake..

    is it not?

    collusion is a serious issue and it looks like there is evidence of it here, so this thread should not be in area 51 imo. Contact Sky and report it, if you are not happy how they deal with it, you should stop playing here

    im basically saying that rake is already accounted for when talking about ROI
    so say the tournament is £90+£10 reg fee, your investment is £100 total, your ROI being 7% means you get £107 back on average

    yes but you still paying £10 rake to get £7 profit..and the rake is always double..IE HU 90+10 =£20 rake
     so no matter how good you are the rake is always more..

    im sorry but the best players in the world are better than 7%

    I,ve noticed these sort of betting patterns a cpl of times in DYM,s over the last year or so

    I make a note and look them up again the nxt few times iplay and if i see them togethor again I,ll watch and then report it to CC if it still looks like they,re at it

    normally a quick word in the chat box soon puts them off tho

    I,m not sure if its more common in DYM,s or just easier to spot

    ah right i get you you're basically saying that sky makes a tenner and you make £7 per each game?

    i thought u were saying that DYM's arent profitable long term because the 10% rake cancels out your 7% ROI so you lose

    lol...finally we get there...

    i am saying no matter how good u are...the rake is always bigger than what u win..that seems very strange.


    so even if you best player in world ( he only 4% roi)  over 40k games...


    and thats the best in the world...:)

    if you are vgood your roi is likely to be low cos you are playing high stakes against other vgood players. Its possible to run at higher roi at lower stakes
