    Great article by Graps, and doesn’t skirt the issue of the increasingly horrid atmosphere that online poker operates in. You can side step the issues any way you want, reword the problems, make it situational, ect-ect…….. The bottom line is that the situation will not get any better for years, if at all. Almost every week it’s a new issue or problem that crops up, that relates directly to Ethics or Character. If money is involved, and there is no way to supervise or regulate, greed & unethical behavior will start to prevail. None of the items below are considered ethical/standard live, now or in the past. But, somehow online it’s accepted by many as standard & defended.

    <SPAN>1)<SPAN> </SPAN></SPAN>Team play during cash or trny play.

    <SPAN>2)<SPAN> </SPAN></SPAN>Live coaching during play.

    <SPAN>3)<SPAN> </SPAN></SPAN>Computerized tracking of player’s and play during play.

    <SPAN>4)<SPAN> </SPAN></SPAN>Substitute players during trny’s.

    <SPAN>5)<SPAN> </SPAN></SPAN>Ect, Ect, Ect……

    Unfortunately there are multiple examples.

    Just my 2 cents……………………..
