Re: is this considered cheating?
[ QUOTE ]
3 people splitting the profits = not much money Personally I'm against this. I think it should be one player to a hand. I know there are lots of people around here who IM other players the situation in the middle of the hand and ask for advice, and to me thats just not kosher. Even when I'm helping someone learn to play the game or giving a friend advice, I wont give him my advice until after hes made his decision. [/ QUOTE ] so um whats your stance on sweat session coaching?? |

To all the people who say its no big deal. Would you think it was ok if some big name pro like Ivey or Helmuth bought some entries for other people to play in a tourny, and if they themsleves busted out, they just went and stood behind their "friend" and told them every move to make? |

Re: is this considered cheating?
I think the one-player-to-a-hand rule is a good one, although I've not always adhered to it. But this is just one of the concessions you have to make when playing online. There's absolutely no way to enforce it, so it has to be allowed.
I do think you're foolish to be doing it, though. You have to be costing yourselves. |

Re: is this considered cheating?
You have no advantage over other players, you are not utilizing anything that will enhance your play - therefore by definition, this is not cheating. Cheating is something that gives you an unfair advantage.
One might think, hey 3 heads is better than one...but in poker this is not the case. if you ask Party about this, they might not be thrilled about you doing it, but will you ever get caught, nah. |

You knock out helmuth, but then hes basically still in the tourny playing? I somehow really cant see this being ok with the majority of people |

Re: is this considered cheating?
so if one friend says fold and another says call, and you decide to call and you lose, does the friend who said fold demand a higher cut? (since of course said profit would be higher if you hadn't been a dumbass and called the huge bet)
