    Swapping percentages with other players at the final table after you've already reached the FT creates huge incentives to collude. It should be strictly prohibited as it is incredibly collusive to make these sorts of agreements.

    LOL at banning it, and if you could, good luck enforcing it. Like I said it is very very common and from what Ive seen it does not change the play between the parties
    Roy: Who would you rather be, Scott 'Punty' Smith or Harris 'P.I.M.P' Pavlou?

    Puzz: Wow tough question...I believe they are both prophets of the Lord Gamblor

    There's a pretty huge difference between staking and making deals with other players at FTs where you benefit from keeping each other alive.

    that's clearly also bad, but probably unavoidable.
