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

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

It's already been established that however many ppl can play yatta yatta, right?

I said nowhere that this was violating any terms. I simply said that it is questionably obtaining a huge advantage, possibly crossing (not illegal) moral and ethical standards. Then I wanted to know what everyone else thought about having 3+ people playing vs a mark in a nosebleed HU game (meaning he probably has no clue this practice even takes place and therefore you can't argue "he didn't have to sit") from an ethical/moral standpoint, not a legal one.

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.

Hmmm..3 huge egos arguing and fighting about how to play every hand on every street. Where's the edge?

it is the online corporation . that is what was done to play andy beal . wish i could get a piece

[craigthedeac]

part of online poker imo

while it might be morally questionable, it's not enforceable so the only alternative as i see it is to allow it
