I have heard of collusion before in 2020 about a casino, I can't remember it though.
Every single poker room has collusion and it's terrible. If you're not playing a bot, you're playing cheaters who are talking on skype, telegram, discord, the phone, or any other messaging app.
This kind of crap is one of the rare arguments in favor of playing against the house. If the house is reputable, there is no cheating in the games that you are playing against the house. The lowest scum cheat even in small bet poker games because their whole existence is worthless and they can't do anything productively. Reminds me a bit of the signature campaign cheaters here.  Smiley

Id the IP address is basically the same of any other poker player on the table, then it is assumed they are within the same building or sharing the same internet connection, which would be suspicious enough for the casino to limit the access of one of those poker players onto the table. Realistically, two people geographically separated could still communicate between them through the use of tools like Whatsapp and Discord, so the IP filter would not be completely effective. However, there is also a possibility not to allow gamblers to choose what table they would be playing on, but rather assign them a random table so they play against strangers, this way it becomes extremely unlikely any collusion happens.
Not completely effective is an understatement, this is not effective at all but thanks for clearing up what you meant. This is easily defeated by residential proxies and they are very cheap. IP filtering is useless, blocking VPNs does not do anything when such proxies are widely available for free. Table randomization is much better, even if it is not perfect.
