Re: The BIG issue of one player per hand in online play.
I agree that one player to a hand is important. However,
[ QUOTE ] While it certainly is not at all enforceable (USING THE CURRENT TECHNOLOGY). I think, at its core the concept of one player per hand is just as important for online play as it is for B&M play. To me, that means that as the technology becomes available enforcement of this core poker philosophy should follow. [/ QUOTE ] There is no way to enforce it online. I don't see there ever being a way to enforce it online other than if someone were typing in the 'chat' window. Even though they do discourage it with what they do now in the examples you presented. It's part of the package(of other questionable stuff) you get when you play online. Thems the risks. b

Re: The BIG issue of one player per hand in online play.
In live play I agree. Online, I disagree. I've advised my Dad on how to play lots of hands while he was learning. We played a $5 SNG yesterday, and with my help we came in 3'rd. I dont find this unethical at all. If those other players knew it was going to be me playing some of those hands, making those decisions, it's not like they would have joined a different game.

Re: The BIG issue of one player per hand in online play.
How exactly could you enforce one player to a hand online with any technology? Force everybody to rig up a video camera in their rooms to prove their is nobody sitting at the PC with them?
