Ansky,

going to London? Any idea if you or other people are planning on getting a house for ESOP + EPT London? People have talked about it a lot and Shaun Deeb and others seemed set on doing it, but now everyones being lazy and I'm worried it might not happen.

Regardless where is everyone staying in Barcelona, and is anyone else going from Turning Stone straight to Barcelona to have more time to enjoy the city?

HEK,

When I coach my students, while they have the "final say" on decisions made in a hand, quite often I will heavily reccomend an action they do in a given hand. Do you think this is immoral? There is absolutely no precedent for 1 player to a hand in online poker. (Also, I am pretty sure that other coaches do exactly the same, and this is very standard).

I think people have to stop using live poker as a reference frame for online. The fact is, at this point in pokers relatively young career, online poker is its own reference point. If there is nothing objectively wrong w/ something in online poker, then that is end of the story-- I do not believe that using a live poker comparison is relevant.

This is fine and I agree with it, but the problem is you have tons of people calling ratholing unethical for just that reason. Very few people are consistent and most just decide to say things that they like are ethical and things they dislike are unethical.
