You're playing in a high stakes game and someone is holding their cards up so they are easy to see constantly.
Two times already you've said to keep them down otherwise you might be able to see them, now you're in a pot with him and hes still doing it, if you were to make a very small effort to lean back you'd prolly be able to see his hand.
Is it ethically wrong to just straight up look at them here?

Why wouldn't it be? He isn't showing them to you, he's just not guarding them very well. It's the same as him leaving them face down and turning his back. Is it unethical to look then? |

But the question wasn't "Would you look?" It was "Is it ethically wrong to look?" |

No it's not, because that isn't a question. |

No it's not, because that isn't a question. I think you know what I'm saying boss. Of course its wrong to look but its very hard not to. |

Very wrong to look at them on purpose.
A bit awkward if you've seen them accidentally, and you are heads up in a pot against him..... not sure what the best way of dealing with that would be.

I say in your normal range of table movement it is fine to have a look at his cards because it is on him to protect them at all times, from others seeing them. However if you are leaning back or making a ridiculous effort to sneak a peak at his cards then you are in the wrong. It is all on whether he is making is very eaesy or not for you to see his cards and you have already given him forewarning.

If you've warned him and his cards are in your natural line of sight I think its fine and his own fault and mbn etc.

The next step is to annouce the cards you can see (particularly if there's other players in the pot), then after that i dunno i don't think i'd even feel bad if he still continued to show.
