Ethics Question:stalling In Satelites?


Recommended Posts

You are putting up your own money and if you are going to be at a disadvantage because other people are stalling then you should feel free to do it too. It would be nice if no one ever stalled but as long as they are allowed to then they will. I actually have been sending emails to Full Tilt the last couple of days asking them to start hand for hand sooner. They currently don't start it until only one person is left on the bubble. This really ruins the integrity of the satellite.

I don't know your background(maybe you have lots of mobnies), but if all were stalling around you for a 10,000 seat into the WSOP main event, and you were low on chips, you would not stall if doing so would guarantee you a seat?Wow - that would take some measure of integrity.
cant think of a spot where stalling could gurantee you a seat, i tighten up like a bitch for sure because thats whats +ev, but stalling doesnt accomplish much

If stalling will get you a seat, there's nothing wrong with it. You play to win a seat and if you do everything within the rules of the game to do that, it's fine. Is it unethical for NFL coaches to call timeouts at the ends of the game when they're down 4 and driving? Is it unethical to challenge a TD catch by the other team late in the game when it's almost 100% certain they caught it? Is it unethical to throw the ball away to stop from getting sacked? Not at all. If you're doing anything seriously, you're doing whatever you can to win. If it's ok by the rules, it's fine.
