Tag-teaming 6-Max

[saucebook]

So I've noticed much more often at 6-Max than full ring that two players will disappear from the table at exactly the same moment. Are we being tag-teamed? How do you spot this, is it worth reporting or am I being naive because this is what I should be doing with my Empire and Party accounts?

I don't think that just because two people leave at the same time neccessarily means they're in collusion... A lot of the time one player is only at a table because there is a known fish, and when that fish leaves, the other player may leave as well. (I do this a lot myself) However you do bring up a good point.... things that make you go hmmmm......

There are two strong possibilities. One is that a player leaves, the table drops to three players as a result, so one of the other three leaves as well. I hate playing 6max with less than 4, and I really prefer five or six, so I often leave as soon as the table gets down to three. The other is what storm said - someone is there hunting a fish, and leaves when the fish goes broke. I just did this yesterday, although technically I left after the next hand, not at the same time. But often I will leave as soon as they do.

Then there's the possibility of collusion. It could be happening, certainly... I bet a lot of people do it. At least to the extent of IMing each other and telling each other their cards.

Hmmm.... dale, I think we need to go to a 50NL 6max table together... muhahahahah!
