i think tongni playing for HIV is unethical in the challenge. but i don't think tongni sitting behind HIV while hes playing and giving him advice on how to beat someone is unethical. funny how fine of a line it is.

if no challenge was made and tongni was just sitting at 100/200 on HIVs account, there is nothing unethical about it, no matter who played him. I think stuff like this happens all the time in high stakes poker.


edit: i didn't really read the thread. i read a few choice posts and heard the story from tongni.

Mike: You gotta think long term man, if nobody can trust that you're playing your own account, we won't be able to get any more sweet HU matches.

Worm: See, that's the way you think, but it's not me. I see a mark, I get on somebody else's account and take them down!

Wow. This is crazy. It's hilarious how some people can compare using a friends account to play a $20 SNG and setting up a 3rd super high heads up challenge match.

I seriously hope that MrTimCaum has Chuck Norris type fighting skills and beats the [censored] out of tongi, deeb, and HIV.

You really wouldn't need chuck norris skills to beat the [censored] out of HIV

Shaun maybe

Tongni I'm not sure but I seem to remember that he's pretty short

OK, let me clarify, lest you continue trolling me while I'm off in the poker room.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm not trying to troll you; you made a quote that I responded to as part of the discussion, then you disagreed with my interpretation of it. I responded with your actual quote, which is apparently trolling, and then you give an explanation that seems to me to fit what I've already said.

[ QUOTE ]

The other two are very clearly attempts to deceive and to angle-shoot or cheat other players into entering a situation that is not what is advertised. They are blatant attempts to set up and take advantage of another player in a dishonest fashion.

[/ QUOTE ]

As opposed to the case they're talking about in HSNL where Antonius sat down on Roland de Wolfe's account in order to get action? Which seems to fall under the first activity you have described, which you view as acceptable (you keep saying you don't necessarily agree with it, but given your tendency to make loud noises about things you actually do disagree with, I think you at least think it's not really bad.)

It seems to me like a debate on sins by omission vs. commission. And the freezeout angle really does add a lot. But otherwise, I think the distinction is really pretty small.

EDIT: Also, this

[ QUOTE ]
Since some of the online poker rooms have already implied that they cannot and plan to do nothing about multiple people playing an account or hand at once, this has become an accepted practice and something that the player is at least always aware of and knows to watch for.

[/ QUOTE ]

formm of argumentation can be used in exactly the same way to justify these crimes against humanity that we're all discussing, since clearly the poker rooms have no more ability to stop that than they do anything else.

I agree with this guy, he seems to be a sharp cookie who'd never get scammed or hustled and who has a good sense of right and wrong.
