    personally and to the point i think it's cheating. Not only would i want these players taken out of the competition but also banned from the site!! what they did is bang out of order and defo not in the spirit of the game or indeed the site!!!

    What I would hope happens from this is both guilty parties recieve 3 year chat bans so they cannot collude in the near future.

    Also if both or either managed to "win" their seat into the SPT live event, I feel the player "Gazscoop" who was cheated out of a Semi Final seat should be awarded the SPT live event seat.

    If the other player is also found guilty AND also won a seat to the live event, I'd have hoped his seat would be awarded to the player who was eliminated on the prize bubble as the player that beat him had unfairly "won" his seat into the event.

    This is my opinion.

    Hi gazscoop..

    Collusion is definitely not tolerated at Sky Poker!

    I see you mentioned that you have reported this via the Live Chat, but, if you still haven't received a response, please don't hesitate to send an email with all the necessary details.

    If collusion is found- action will be taken.

    Customer Care do indeed have access to the entire chat history of any table as long as you can provide us with the player names and table name.

    It is important that everyone remember, if ever you suspect that there might be some dodgy play happening at your table, we will be more than happy to investigate immediately.

    Take Care :)

    Sky Mod

    Hi Col This is a strange one.  My post was in response to a post made by gazscoop in which he stated that the two were now playing on the same table in a semi.  That post has now been removed as far as i can see, so reading the thread it appears that it is me making the observation. To be clear, i do not know the alleged colluders names, or for certain that it did take place.  I used the word "apparently" in my post to emphasise that i was talking on the hypothetical "if" they had cheated, as I am not in a position to state facts. But "if" what gazscoop says is correct, I would be angry that they are playing in a semi and therefore potentially affecting the chances of other players qualifying. That said, it seems strange that the post gazscoop has now been deleted, and i dont know what the significance of that would be. Cheers Col Ray

    Hi Guys,
    My post that contained a fellow players name, that had chips dumped on them, has been deleted by the mods.
    To date this is the first time ive had any post taken off and im a bit disappointed.
    Why, well this incident was a well known case during the qualification for leg 1, it had its own thread running for a while, and i also said in my post that the player i named had no part in the incident. So to the person who complained to the mods, thank you and in future if you have a problem why not try PMing me to discuss things rather than running to the mods.
    If there was no mention of this player in another thread then i would NEVER have put his name in there, but having met and talked to the man he is a genuine and nice fellow and if it was him i upset then i humbly apologise to him.

    col

    Not quite, but the offending players have been blocked from sitting at the same table as one another. They have been given a final warning and if anything similar is reported in the future they will be suspended from the site completely.

    I must add that if they had gone on to win a seat in the SPT then we would have removed it, but, as it happens, they didn't. See - cheating definitely does not pay!

    And of course we have awarded gazscoop with a seat in an SPT Semi Final of his choice.

    Please do not hesitate to report any suspected collusion, regardless of the amount being played for, to help@skypoker.com

    WOW thank you for letting us know what happened to the players concerned, it makes a change from the usual "We can't comment on individual cases"
