Re: My Statement
[ QUOTE ]
For what it’s worth, my standard protocol has been to increase my number of tables when this happens. As most of you know, I will very rarely be playing fewer than six tables at a time. If I had 6 tables open and two of my accounts were brought to the same table, I would simply open up 4-6 more SNGs. I felt that this would negate my unethical advantage. With 10 tables open, I just play tight and solid. I can’t even remember the hole cards one account folded after the flop, and I’m certainly unable to pay special attention to that table.

This is perfectly in line with what I think of your character. I believe you are both exceptionally intelligent and well-moraled and ethically balanced. Given my high opinion of your character I was hurt to open this thread this morning. How could you not see the wrongness of entering the same tourney twice???

[/ QUOTE ] I am no saint, and certainly at 19 I was not as principled as I am now. I remember as late as junior year of HS copying math homework. I remember cheating at board games as a child and even at sports. These memories pain me and I have learned from them.
I know we are not friends and you know even less about me than I know about you (I've seen your website). However, I do feel the pain you are going through now, both losing the respect of so many people and losing a substantial amount of money. Once you finish learning from this, I hope there is some way I can help you in the future. Of course, that is unlikely as you are a remarkable young man and well recover from this quickly. Take Darcy's (Woodguy) advise and save and reread the response you gave.
