What you've posited sounds like a black-or-white situation. In real life,
you don't see many of these situations. To relate it back to the casino
environment, I would assume that the casinos rarely try to cheat the customer.
This is real life. However, real life is pretty boring to watch & to talk
about so that's why we get our kicks watching shows which showcase
extremes-of-reality.
We can start an endless discussion to justify must-cheat-to-win or
win-without-cheating but the important thing is to recognize what it does to you &
how you value yourself & your friends. Your friends are a reflection of
who you are. You can see through them how much of your soul you've sold.

Bruce,
Of course I have the desire to win without cheating, but let's dicuss how
you would handle a real life situation. You are closely matched with an
opponent, but you know your opponent is cheating and you know that unless you
cheat to level the playing field you will lose. Do you cheat or just accept
defeat. When you know you can beat someone even if they cheat and you
don't, they probably know it too and there is no payoff for cheating.
