Default Re: ethical question, don\'t know where to put it but here it goes.

This is kinda funny because it reminds me of a hand with dobieatwar a couple months ago. First, he and I are good friends and talk often and we know eachothers games pretty well and can therefore offer qualified opinions as to certain lines, etc. So we're playing one evening and he opens for 4xbb, which is unusual for dobie (for those of you who play against him). I wake up with AA in the CO and decide not to 3 bet him and just call hoping to trap him with another big pair. We get heads up on a 358 rainbow flop, and I am pumped, ready for a stackola to come my way. He leads with about a 1/2 pot bet and I min raise plus a little just to get a pot going because I know he isn't going anywhere. He just calls, and it kinda makes me think a second, but nonetheless, when he donks the turn when another 3 hits (brought a flush draw) I let the timer run as if I am contemplating a call or something crazy. I figure no way he donks a turned boat, so I shove and he instacalls with fives full of threes...

He immediately let me know that he "wasn't taking shots at me or trying to be a dick," but the funny thing was that I *WAS* trying to make a move and get his stack! Anyways, my point is that we are all here to play poker and win money. Maybe we'll have some fun doing it. You have every right to exploit whoever you want whenever they are playing, friend or not. Dude, are you really THAT close of friends - online poker is about as personal as World of Warcraft.

That guy should be happy you paid him off and I think he's overreacting quite a bit. Now, if you are consistently playing with your roommates account, then this would be a whole different story...
