someone I know set up a page to game adsense so the page ranked high and had nothing much on it except adsense ads which would have appeared attractive even to users who might not usually click them. This was just one page on a popular site with useful information.
page ranked high as expected and result was 28% click through rate for that page.
4 weeks of this and then the site got whalloped by google. now the rankings for the exact text of the internal menu (all the popular phrases) are all down around 300, while variations still rank top 3.
anyone heard of a sort of adsense gaming penalty? maybe it is something else but the site has been rock solid for a while, that is why the person thought he could fool around with it in this way.
