So in a tourney last night a guy I was playing with lived in the same state as me and we were buddying up/STS (that's a new one I hope)...we had pretty similar playing styles and he seemed like a pretty good guy...he then says "Do you have MSN?" which I do even though I said I didn't (I have enough friends especially strange ones from the internet) but it got me thinking...

Are there people online playing at same tables that know each other that share hands etc? It seems like it would be a huge advantage for them if they knew even one other persons cards at their table. It kind of freaks me out the same way it does if two guys are chatting in a language I don't know at my table...
