Yeah, I've often found it hard to justify. You can tell yourself all sorts of things, but you're right.

My best friend has been an online pro for about ten years now and has told me some stories. The one that comes to mind is about targeting fish in a way that's far from laudable.

He's friends with a lot of other regs and stakers. He tells me about how some of them will start chats and groups to make friends with fish. They're not being friendly. They're trying to get those fish to play as often as they can and take as much of their money without any concern about whether or not they can afford it. It's definitely reaping the benefit of someone else's addiction in a glaring way.
