Shouldn't it be $680-$170?

Well, since 2nd place is $250, you would have to be really drunk to take the short end of that deal.

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.

Which one do you feel worse about:

1) Offering the drunk a fair deal he has every oppurtunity to reject.

2) Him putting you all in with 39o and busting your pocket 10s?

100% a great idea. He offered the deal to someone else and you overhead and asked him and he said yes.

His idea, his drunkenness, his problem.

The other people in the room need to mind their own god damn business. Like they would have turned down the offer.

I would not hesitate to take advantage of a happy drunk. Those guys are so damn annoying at the poker table...

"HAHAHAHAHA. CAN YOU GUYS BELIEVE THIS RUN OF LUCK?!? I CAN'T LOSE!!! I'M SORRY SIR, I SUGGEST YOU FOLD. I AM GOING TO HIT MY 3 OUTER. OK I CALL, WHAT DO YOU GOT? THREE QUEENS? DAMN I HAD KING HIGH. OH WELL NICE HAND."
