Was this couple colluding? Interested to hear what people think...
-------------------------------------------------------
GAME: Online poker club, nightly tourney
VILLAINS: A couple in their 30s, who live together. Boyfriend is an experienced player I’ve battled with many times for several years. Girlfriend only recently joined the club; when playing live, she drives him to games and sits behind him. Never seen her play until the past couple of weeks.
TOURNEY: I’m the second-biggest stack with about 200 BB and have them both covered. We’re only at the third level. It’s a rebuy tourney. Boyfriend has already rebought once.
MY HAND: I have AKo in UTG+2
ACTION:
• Two loose passive players limp 400
• Hero raises a standard 3x to 1,200
• Girlfriend calls
• Boyfriend on the button re-raises to 3,600
• Limpers call
• Hero calls
• Girlfriend 4bets to 14,000
• Boyfriend who 3bet me folds
• Limpers fold
• I call
• Flop is 433 with a flush draw
• Girlfriend bets 30K
• I fold
• Girlfriend shows AA
• I ask the Boyfriend what he had. He claims he had “AK.”
