[ QUOTE ] Without readying your post: No, it is not, no matter what the circumstances. [/ QUOTE ] Exactly. Plus, might have done drunk the favor. His attnention span is shot and anxious to go drunk around some more or starts to come off high, your playing advantage could have ended up much more than his chip advantage. I call this chop a win/win. [/ QUOTE ] I agree. And screw those other hypocrites. It's not like you need them as friends right? |

[ QUOTE ] Without readying your post: No, it is not, no matter what the circumstances. [/ QUOTE ] There are lots of ways of taking advantage that would be unethical. (Stealing his chips when he's not looking comes to mind.) [/ QUOTE ] I would view stealing as an illegal action, not a circumstance. Other circumstance might be cash game and he is literally showing his cards. Not turning your head away or telling him to protect his hand, that is a different circumstance where advantage is still being taken. If he is raising with an Obvious looser cause he is drunk then reraising him is taking advantage. Is that unethical....please. If it is, I'm going to hell. |

A chop based on stacks would have been $530 - $320. So he gave you $100 in order to save time and in recognition that you had an edge over him, being sober (or maybe just less wasted) and a better player. A bit more than I think he should have given away, but not outrageous.

You offered a deal, he took it. I see nothing wrong with this.

I would consider it unethical to NOT take advantage of the drunk. Poker is a predatory game, don't be a pussy.
