I would expect nothing less from Luke, and it is clearly the right move.

I think it's nice, but actually probably a little too nice in the context of highstakes poker. I'm certainly not sure what I would do in his seat, and, in any case, I don't think the it's even vaguely unethical to take the guy's blinds, therefore I don't feel comfortable calling this "clearly the right move." I wouldn't want to see people called out for poor ethics if they opposite of what IWG did.

I wondered similarly to the poster who figured IWG wouldn't have done it if he had been playing for his first (not third) Aussie seat, and it's not a reflection on IWG at all, just on how one's mood/situation could determine his actions in this spot.
