Anyone else feel guilty taking loose passive's money?

[Jinx]

I have no problem taking money from LAGS or TAGS. They're trying to do the same to me and I would love nothing more than to punk them as hard as possible. But when I play against the really loose passives, sometimes I feel bad about taking their money. They're just so over matched. They have no chance against me at all unless the deck just completely screws me. It almost feels like robbery.

I would check raise my grandmother for the last of her social security check. If you do not have that attitude at the poker table, you are probably playing the wrong game.

awesome, i couldn't have said it better myself

if anything, you are doing them a service...if they are smart, they will feel the sting soon enough and either wise up and win or not risk money they can't afford to be losing

I dont want to hijack, but does anyone feel worse taking peoples money in live games verses online games? i have no problem at all pwning people online, but when I see the poor hardworking people losing their paycheck, i cant help but to feel a little bad. I still pwn them, but i dont like doing it.

That's what makes you and I different, if they're willing to give it up, I'm willing to take it. Hell, I have a family to take care of. I guess I just possess a certain, "moral flexibility."

The feeling goes away after a while. Just give it some time. Btw, in case anybody thinks that this is a joking reply, it isn't. I used to feel that way also.

No because for some god damn reason they always have KK when I have QQ, AJ when I have AT, 2 pair when I have an overpair, made flush on the flop when I have a set. WHEN WILL IT END?!?!?!?!?!
