A moral question for the adherents of Sklanskyanity.
With regard to the hand below.
When the hero hits his quads should he really (If he is a sklanskyanite) seek to cap the turn and the river. Hero felt a little guilty doing so, as he knows how much it can hurt, and would not want it done to him. (As you may guess the button had AA)

If you don't make a conscious effort to put as much in as possible, you should stop playing poker.

You missed a bet on the flop!

Recite the UTG calling categories 10 times and do one push up. Yes, yes, with your belly touching the floor.

Then we'll see.

I seem to recall an old quote by DS along the lines of:

Not raising with AK from any position is a crime against humanity.

Along those same lines, not capping with the nuts must be placed in the same category but as a more severe offense.
