Should I feel badly about HNR? Is it kind of bad etiquette or totally cool? Just curious.
A lot of posts will probably follow this telling you how its 'uncool', 'unethical' and you shouldnt do it.
They are all wrong. It is your money, and your decision. Poker is played by most to try to make money. There is no rule in any poker room that says you have to play more than a single hand.
If you want to leave, leave. The people that are pissed are trying to make money. They don't like to see anyone leave, because it's money they might have been able to win.
