for a second there, I agreed with the idea that if he were a beginner, a little help is ok. then I remembered that the pot was $300. $300 is not a beginner pot. I don't care if you're a bunch of oilpatch workers with only 2 days TO and $5000 to blow... A $300 pot is one to be taken seriously.
I seriously would have had a bit of a hissy fit. I'd have at least told the guy that he needs to plant a cork in his pie hole. And if the other guys at the table disagreed, you need to find new poker buddies. Or else just play for $5 or $20.
