Whereas there is a highly limited pool of players who play at the 10k tables, and whereas we all know each other and play with each other frequently, it stands to reason that RCs will build up, whether due to a random smattering of games that players win together or whether certain players have a tendency to support each other.

While it makes sense to use RCs to prevent collusion at lower stakes tables, because there is essentially an infinite supply of games at the lower tables, we the players of 10k games find that instead of a boon to prevent cheating, it is instead a detriment to the ability to play games.

<Personal note>

I personally do not have any RCs this month, but have watched 10k games unable to be played because of them. I have sat at games with 6 players and watch MadHat_Sam (known to all as a player I don't get on with particularly well) not be able to sit because vicsf is sitting, and eventually everyone just gives up and leaves.

</Personal Note>

We state now and for the record that I would prefer to play a 10k game with two players who win often together than not play a 10k game at all.

We also state that clever players who wish to collude have already figured out easy ways around the RC calculations, that I will happily spell out to Ryan in private.

Therefore, given the situation as it currently stands, we, the undersigned humbly request that the RC cheating prevention mechanism be lifted from all 10k and above tables until such time as there are sufficient players that 10k games become easy to start on a regular basis.
