I've got a moral dilemma of my own.
I play poker regularly for fun and for a side income. A couple of times I have played with an old guy who appeared to be not very good.
A week or two ago, I played with him again. First hand at the table it's me, him and another guy. I end up with a big pot. Didn't think anything of it. A few minutes later, I move seats and am sitting next to this older close to this old guy for the first time. The other times I've been at the other end of the table.
Anyway, it becomes clear to me that he is suffering from some form of dementia. He is often confused when the action gets to him. One hand he flips his cards over after 4th street when there is still one more card to come.
He loses most of the rest of his money a little while later, but still had $7 left. He tells another player he will be back, but never comes back. Like he forgot he still had some money on the table.
I mention this to the other people at the table and they talk about how he used to be a really sharp guy and he's been slipping. One older woman regular player mentions that he was lost in the buffet earlier and didn't know where he was but his wife eventually found him. She also mentioned how, earlier in the week, he had either made a bet or called a bet and slid his cards into the pot with his chips. The dealer looked at him like he was crazy (they can't say anything to influence how a hand is played though) and after a few seconds took his cards and folded them for him. That woman asked him if he was OK and he said No.
I'm thinking if people know he has dementia, why are they letting him play? Damn vultures. Then again, he apparently likes to play and his wife brings him to the casino several times a week. I just don't know what to do they next time I get seated at his table.
