Coaching via AIM -- is this legal?
A friend of mine has asked me to help him learn how to play SnG's. Is it legal to observe his table and give him advice via AIM? Ethical?

Legal meaning within the T&Cs of a site? I doubt it. If you want to stay on the ethical side, discuss the hand after it takes place, not during. But as others said, people do it.

I don't see what's wrong with it (ethically) so long as the person you're chatting with is not on the same table.

It's also acceptable to have your wife rooting you on during a poker tourney, but it's not acceptable to hire a skanky hooker to sit in the crowd and root you on.
Go figure. |

[/ QUOTE ] Just to add-on, nut scratching is looked down upon at the upper-class level casinos that I've been to. Some of the [censored] ones don't care much as long as you don't walk around with your hand down your pants then touch the chips immediately afterwards. I've also been chided by the floor manager for casual porn viewing during a live session. |
