Re: Was Hachem being unethical?
[ QUOTE ]
Because Minh doesn't speak english very well. He doesn't understand alot of the subtleties needed to accurately interprety what Hachem was implying with his statements+body language.

but because you're at a poker table, there's a huge amount of 'is he lying? is he not lying?' that just naturally goes on. clearly if lee thought that it was so cut and dry that hacham was just telling the truth he would have folded his hand quickly. i don't see this as possible. i don't think it's possible that hacham came close to telling anyone who speaks fluent english he had AA or KK in this spot.
finally, i think you massively overestimate how poor an english speaker Minh is wrt these situations.
