I've seen it for myself at tournies I have entered. I'm sure it is the same familiy this gentleman is talking about.

You can't stop it unless you sequester the participants. Anybody in these tournaments can be coached with the communication choices out there.

How can you possibly stop it?

Additionally, they need to make the tournament payout structure less top-heavy. First prize paid a whopping $400,000 but 6th place only paid $8,000 in the NHC, that's even more stratified than poker tournaments which have the same problem IMO.
