Re: Is this wrong?
[ QUOTE ]
I had a friend who had to leave to pick up his son so he called me to take over for him in a tourney. I never thought twice about it and he was second in chips at the time and I wound up winning the tourney. I do see how in a live tourney this could never happen so why should it online...but...I didnt see anything wrong with it. Was I wrong? [/ QUOTE ] Live poker is also one person to a hand, online poker isn't. You can't go about comparing one exactly to the other, they're different animals. |

Re: Is this wrong?
If the situation is a legitimate case of being unable to play, I think it's fine ethically.
So fine, ethically. |

Re: Is this wrong?
Ethically OK since there was no plan ahead of time that one player would take over if the other one busted and something came up forcing one player to leave.
Legally I think most Terms and Conditions say the same player can't play the same tourney under different names which is technically what is happening. On a side note if the player that takes over goes on to do well in the tourney is it customary to get some percentage or agree to X% ahead of time? I know it's kinda sticky becasue if the guys that takes over tubes it he would not expect to pay up for lost value since player would have blinded out anyway. |

Re: Is this wrong?
Nothing that wrong, done it a bunch of times for players and had it done for me as well. When something comes up, something comes up.
