I thought this one was settled actually and APAT had said it is not allowed. It us a shame because it would improve the event but it is banned.
If this (paragraph 1) happens in Stoke there should be a severe penalty (player DQ as it is cheating). That is the rule and it should be applied otherwise it just becomes even more confusing.

APAT did and so that is the rule and, I would hope, it will be applied in the unlikely event that it actually happens.
I, for one, think we should have a proper Team event.
Soft play and all other team tactics allowed including physical chip passing between hands and in-play hand discussions.
Team prizes only with no individual prizes to cut out the individual element.
Could be a hoot!

Agree Paulie... thought this for some time. APAT are very good at being innovative - I challenge APAT to support a Team Event where soft play, chip passing/dumping, etc are all allowable and expected, and where the team that performs best as a team is the winner.

For me, soft play and chip passing should be an integral part of Team Poker, and it"s up to the other teams to see it happening and to take advantage. Like all poker, it"s about adjusting to varying dynamics

I can predict two things. Chips will be passed. No-one will be disqualified. You want to start a riot? You guys better learn to adapt to the situation.
