In Response To: This was inevitable (PerpetualCzech)

This is not atypical for this type of conversation- or any for that matter.

No ones denying that collusion happens.

No ones denying that collusion COULD give you an edge.

But then those people that want to focus on the fact that collusion exists- as the main issue- simply stop there.

They dont go any further.

The main issue is not the existence of collusion.

I can accept your premise- but understand from my experience- as does Czech- that what you're saying doesnt amount to an awful lot in itself.

You (the generic) cant get past that issue- and will never understand whats really important.

I dont agree with the ethics of it. Its bad for poker. I hate that it exists. I hate that human nature is such that this type of behavior is inevitable.

I also understand that the mere of existence of it- doesnt mean a whole lot to me- and there are other issues- (related to this one- that follow logically from this one) that mean an absolute ton more to me- in practice.

For some reason- i can accept your point- but you cant make it all the way to mine.
