I disagree.

If you're playing a cutthroat game against other good players, then betting here to take advantage of someone who might be distracted is fine.

Betting into a fish in a home game is not. As far as I'm concerned, it's shooting an angle. For the love of God, you're playing against a guy who has trouble reading the board. Do you have to resort to this kind of thing in order to turn a profit? Do you think he isn't going to find out, after the hand? How is that going to make him feel? Do you think he's going to continue dumping money into your game if you make a fool out of him here?

I agree that the dealer needs to be smacked, but complaining that you lost half a pot that you were not entitled to is really bad form.
