Was this cheating?

[Belly77]

Just reported two players on a Virgin $5 5 player.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

I presume they were scrutinizing every hand and telling each other what they had. One of them was from <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Romania so I presume they were speaking Romanian. After the blinds had gone round they would talk to each other before calling. One would raise and the other would fold. If one of us raised they would have a little discussion before both folding or after a little discussion one folding and one reraising.

One of them started building a big pot before he got taken down by KK. I kind of sussed them out as I remember reading a similar thing on here so I warned the other 3 English players what they were upto. They then had the cheek to call me a cheat (in English) before going back to Romanian. After that one of them went all in with 34 and was out. Then the one who was left spouted a load of Romanian at me before going all in with his next hand 33. Got taken down and was out.

Just reported them both to Virgin and they said they'd look into it. I hope they do something about it as it did ruin the game.

Re: Was this cheating? i believe most if not all poker sites state english only to be used, so :spank , hard to tell if were cheating but sounds dodgy to me. i personally am fluent in talking sh*t but do try not to use it at the poker table (save that for mike);)
