Moral or Immoral?

[marcro]

I would take the money and wish him all the best with his new piece of jewellery.  And no, it is not immoral.

[4KingNutz]

No DEAL



   Nutzzzz

I'd agree to the deal and agree that i'd reraise all in on a total bluff so that he can call with any kind of made hand to make it look convincing for tv.

Then his face would be a picture when i reraise all in with the absolute nuts and watch as he calls with top pair weak kicker, take the 12 million pounds, WSOP main event bracelet and the millions of dollars of sponsorship and endorsements that will follow.

That would be immoral and would teach him a lesson to never trust a monkey

[AndrewT]

I'd demand the full $18m - then we'll see how little he values the money and how much he wants the bracelet.

[CelticGeezeer]

Deal, I dont like braclets.

[Karabiner]

Did this kind of situation not come up some years ago in Paris ?

For a lot less money of course, but I heard that Surindar let some French guy win who wanted "a title".

On another note, it might be tough getting paid the $6M especially from a Gaimy Jold type 

[Zebediah]

Right now I would prefer $12 million and a little bit of fame, rather than $6 million and too much fame.

But when I'm Tikays age I might want that title to bore the tits off the other people I'm in the nursing home with.

[ACE2M]

give me $6 mill thanks. Whats immoral? It's yours and his money to with what you see fit.

WSOP rules say you can't make a deal that involves the title, the braclet must be played for. If he wants the braclet, ill sell it to him if i win for what ever amount he wants, i still have the title.

I think the sponsership and the like out ways any money deal. 1st UK player as WSOP holder milk it

[iceman]

i refuse to answer hypothetical morality questions until my hookers been with my daily crack supply

exactly what I was thinking.  Good to see that Team Chorlton are on the same wavelength

[The Camel]

I'll tell you the reason for posing this dilemma...

In the main event at Monte Carlo I was sitting next to Isabelle.

The attention she got was bordering on ridiculous. She must have her picture taken at least 200 times.

We got to talking... I said if she ever won the main event of the WSOP she couldn't set foot outside the door without being pestered. And she replied she didn't care she would give her right arm to win it, the sponsorship deals and fortune to be made as the first woman to win it would be so big.

Well, I know I'm not quite so marketable at Isa    but to be honest I could live without peeps asking for my autograph and taking my picture etc etc. The quiet life for me.

So, we agreed if we got heads up... she could have the bracelet and I would get the $$$$$.

And everyone is happy!

Now there's the little matter of 6000 players to get past.....

Call all your money with a weak ace into a straight, thats what I would do.

I still dont see how you could definitely ensure that someone else wins without some form of collusion. Even if you need runner-runner post flop, you still can win. Unless you know you are drawing dead, and for that to happen you need to know what your opponent holds.

I understand what you're saying but i dont think that the word "colllusion" is right, i mean who are they turning over?

The greatest prize in the game, and the first thing which comes into her head when you mention it to her is 'Mmmmm, sponsorship...'
