    Ok long story short, two people are clearly colluding in one of those like 30 people full tilt satellites. Another guy at my table said he would be sending an email. I send like 10 emails finnally get a responce 10 days later that includes this, please explain this to me.

    "

    are not involved in any collusion or unfair play. However, we do notice
    that these players share a relationship. At this time, we have taken the

    playing environment for all of our players."

    Can you please explain this to me? They have a relationship but they
    were not involved in any sort of unfair play? What type of
    'relationship' do they have?

    Have you reviewed the hand history? This is ridiculous!

    At a point Spaethman only need like 300 chips to knock out
    purple_princess! He had well over 10k stack and folded anyway, yet he
    was super aggressive to anybody who wasnt purple princess!

    This is a clear cut definition of Softplaying!

    Please explain to me what type of relationship they have, and perhaps
    review the hand history again because i think its pretty ridiculous if
    you cant how spaethman softplayed...

    I am expecting to be compensated for this or i am sure i will move my
    online poker playing elsewhere.

    their reply :

    Thank you for your response.

    Please note that our initial review of these two players did not show an
    indication of collusion. At your request we have since re-investigated
    these two players and have found there was soft-playing occurring,
    clearly indicating collusion. We apologize for the error in our initial
    assessment, and thank you for pursuing the matter with us.

    We have now forfeited their tournament rank and winnings, and adjusted
    your finishing position in the tournament. You will find your adjusted
    tournament prize of $93.00 in your Full Tilt Poker account within the
    next 2-3 business days.

    Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. Reports such as
    yours help us in our efforts to keep Full Tilt Poker free of collusion.

    Best of luck on the tables, and if there's anything else we can help you
    with, please let us know.

    Regards,

    Very interesting, good on you for actually pushing this. I really wish FT would have got this on their own without you having to point out the glaringly obvious.

    These sites are unreal, say poopy in the chat box and they hunt you down and crucify you.

    Get reported for colluding, they can't find it.

    sharing a relationship could mean that maybe they are two friends who like to play in the same poker tournaments. That doesnt make them cheaters. I play with my friends a lot and its not like we are running some grand scam. Why would you bother cheating in some cheap satalite?
