While the couching during a tournament may not have a dramatic effect on their poker skills over the long term, it certainly can during the particular tournament and that is completely unfair to the other participants in the tournament.

You missed my point completely. It has a negligible short-term effect, too. If I go up to my friend in a live tournament and whisper to him information I have on one of his opponents such as a tell or playing patterns, that's equally unfair. Having friends who are good at poker gives you an advantage in poker, it's true.

Whether that makes you a scumbag, well, if the shoe fits. Not that I expect anyone ro really care. But this whole thread has been very disappointing.

Yeah, you sound like a self-righteous jerkoff.

We were talking about coaching during an online tourney. We are not talking about a situation like posting in this forum that you are at someone's table in a tourney and having people post their thoughts on how that person plays. I also see those situations as different. That is not the point I was addressing. I was adressing your point that coaching online during a tourney and coaching a bowler were the same thing. They are not.

If the shoe doesn't fit, that is good.
