Re: Zoo Ethics Question
What about botting? Deposit fraud? Chip dumping? Chat scamming? PokerEdge? HUDs? etc.
My point is... What's really ethical in online poker? Is it up to the players or the sites to determine?

Re: Zoo Ethics Question
Poker is a game pitting individuals against each other (except on some weird TV tournaments). Therefore anything that one can do FOR ONESELF is fair game unless otherwise forbidden.
There may be some debate on the grey areas, but collusion is just downright cheating. End of.

Re: Zoo Ethics Question
I would love to hear the thoughts of the nameless cowards who think colluding is ok.

[/ QUOTE ] You mention HUDs, I don't think it is unethical to use these at a site when the site expressively states that these are OK, If a site said, hey you can use bots here, then I would have no problem whatsoever with people using bots at that site, though I wouldn't play at that site. If a T&C doesn't seem up to your standards, don't play at that site.

I've looked through both the Terms & Conditions and the Site Rules, but can't find the stipulations. Prohibited software isn't mentioned either. Now...FT's reps will post on here about what is OK and what isn't, and the site will tell you what's unethical ONLY if you email or call them...but the fact that nothing's listed on the website is a bit unsettling IMO. It's also possible that everything is listed when you install the software. If that's the case, then I (and many others) have probably overlooked them.

Re: Zoo Ethics Question
What do you mean by 'OK' in the poll? Ethically I find collusion wrong but unless stated otherwise legally there's nothing wrong with it.
