The tops pros on ladbrokes all do side deals.

For example three of them (all in the top 20 points leaders (annual) were at my table all roughly even in chips.

All agreed to pay each other 10% of there winning...

Thats pretty common I think. The book, Positively FIfth Street, says that in the 2000 WSOP many of the final tables players wanted to make a deal but T.J. Cloutier refused because he felt it was bad luck and really wanted the bracelet.

You should pick up that book if you havent read it Nick, it's totally your style

Side deals used to be pretty common in land based casinos but with pokers popularity most of the tourneys have banned them now. Personally I don't understand that myself. I'm there to win the tourney and take top prize. Not share it with someone else.
