Bum Hunting is considered unethical in poker because it involves experienced players targeting and exploiting weaker, less skilled players for easy wins. This practice is widely frowned upon in the poker world because it makes the game less enjoyable and less profitable for recreational players, who form the backbone of the online and live poker ecosystem. By driving away the recreational players, bum hunting threatens the sustainability of the game and harms the poker economy as a whole. Moreover, it is widely considered to be a form of predatory behavior that undermines the spirit of fair competition that is at the heart of the game. Many online poker sites and live poker rooms have taken steps to discourage bum hunting, such as introducing random seating, table balancing, and other measures to protect recreational players.
