Hamlet should of killed Claudius when he had the chance. It appears that Claudius was praying and Hamlet wanted to kill him. But he decided not to kill Claudius in the confession because his sould will go to heaven. And another possible reason why I think he didnt kill Claudius because Hamlet does not have it in him to take a life just for the sake of his father's ghost.
Even though Hamlet had definite proof of Claudius crime, and Claudius admitted it during his soliloquy. Hamlet would have been viewed as a mad murderer. And if he kill Claudius, Hamlet would have suffered with consequences for his actions.
