Default Re: My Statement

CSC,

Again, if you read his statement, I think it's pretty clear he knew it was wrong. He just thought there was enough $$$ value to him that doing that amount of wrong was OK. So, his willingness to cheat is clearly a function of the benefit gained by it. You can connect the dots.

I believe ZeeJustin was operataing under the influence of Gorden Gecko's "Greed is good" maxim, and there was no moral calculus beyond that. Also, he was operating in an ethical environemnt that many people--including respected posters on here--said was perfectly fine to operate under.

Also, I don't believe creating a widespread snitching operatin is the answer. I knew of many people who were doing this (I never asked for details and had no idea that people would be brazen enough to enter 6 accounts in a tournament, but that's actually irrelevant) and would never consider telling on anyone, friend or enemy.
