In Highlands, NC, I play poker for fun. I play with the same gentlemen year in and year out. So an intent to take every possible nickel away from them would be poor form.

On the other hand, when I sit down at a table in Las Vegas, the approach to the game is entirely different. There, every other player will cheerfully take every last nickel from me, if possible. So, it is expected and proper that I should take the same approach to them.

I gather you play poker frequently. I trust you make the same distinctions between a "friendly" game and a "money" game.
