I don't understand why people think that poker is a game played for honor and truth. It is a game that is specifically built upon lying and stealing (bluffing) to make money.

Another one of you guys. So if there's an old man next to you who won't notice you grabbing a few of his chips, do you go ahead and (literally) steal them?

Me personally, no, because that would be illegal. My point was the game of poker is based on lies and deception, which happens to be looked down upon in society.

No. You must get easily confused. A fake check to induce action isn't bluffing, misrepresenting your hand, or "stealing" the blinds. It is just plain old cheating, like marking cards, collusion, or pulling an Ace out of your sleeve. Duh.

i dont think it's cheating cause it is not against the rules duh.

it is angleshooting and worth a kick in the nuts
