Talking about food meant that person missed the draw/was betting a bluff. Pretty soon it became OBVIOUS that they were colluding! If one hit the flop, he'd start talking about the WSOP, signalling for another to bet ahead to trap the rest of us. Should I have handled the situation differently? What would you have done?
