It's against the rules on PokerStars and it's allowed on FullTilt.

PokerStars allows you to chop the final round AFAIK but I don't think you are supposed to join the games on there pre-teamed anymore.

Lobby says no deals allowed, technically nothing is allowed (same with 2 mans).In practice, it just limits their liability/headaches, but from what I hear they've been refunding people for the most part that get "chop deal scammed."I'd just play solo and never chop, you'll never experience any drama and you're not losing any edge (unless you can get better players than you to team up with you, then obviously you gain edge at their expense).
