Ethical "dilemma": reporting someone in live tournament for room rule/legal violation Ethical "dilemma": reporting someone in live tournament for room rule/legal violation

05-23-2014 , 05:01 AM
Situation: Playing 3 handed in a live low stake tournament in a card room where all players must be 21. "Villain" in this situation is young looking, with two older men who already busted railing him, one supposedly his brother.

Hero is joking around with V and makes a crack about how he doesn't look 21 years old. "Brother" starts saying, "he's not even 21!" loudly several times before he gets uncomfortable and shuts up.

3 handed, M getting ugly, chop is inevitable (3rd player would definitely be willing), do you say something to the room manager? Kid is at best breaking house rule and at worst the law. Plus it creates opportunity for 2-way chop.

Thoughts? I know my answer here, interested in other opinions.

Honestly not sure if this is better in B&M or LLSNL.

I wouldn't do this.
Just play some honest poker ...
The kids age doesn't matter at all to you.

guess it comes down to which is more important to someone. A little money or not being a snitch about something that is just a dumb societal law. Kid can die in Iraq but he can't play a little holdem. God bless the USA, long may freedom ring.

It would be better in B&M, IMO. Repost the question there and I'll lock this one so the mods there don't temp-ban you for having two open threads on the same subject.

Good question.
