Ethicality of High Stakes HU - DaEvila

[Poseidon65]

There's a difference between taking action and having people help you make live decisions.

Anyone for a prop bet on whether tie53 shows up today?

I don't think it's ethically wrong at all.

Why is this limited to HU? I know some guys who do this in FR games. Whatever the case, if there is no rule at the site that states one player to a hand, then I really don't see the problem with it. Even if the marks don't know. The marks don't know a lot of things about poker; that's how we make our money.

I can't edit my post but since there seems to be some confusion: I don't care or have a problem with taking action, I am focusing on tag teaming some random guy.

BK: Care to elaborate a bit?

Seeing how the game of poker in itself is based on one player per hand tag teaming is obviously against the spirit of the game. But it's not against the sites rules so people are gonna do it which kind of sucks. Between that, multiaccounting, aim, superuser accounts etc. live ring games are starting to look much better to me unfortunately.

I don't think that having somebody help you play is unethical.

For those that see nothing wrong with this: You sit down to play tie53 HU. He takes your roll. You later find out that PA and The Terrorist were with tie53 and making decisions togather. You ok with that? What's the difference between this and what HIV did vs Gildwulf? I guess FWF cant beat a donk HU so he needs help. Pretty damn sad

Nobody will play TIE on their own roll.

And if Ivey and Antonius want to come over and help out as well, I don't see a problem with it.
