im talking about gambling as a social stigma with no regard to legality. sorry, i should have clarified.Ok, cool, that makes the argument a little more clear.You will always find contradictions when arguing social norms. A technical argument will never persuaded someone to change a social value (the alcohol=legal--marijauna=illegal debate is a great example).Education, business, investments...one can make a strong social policy argument for each and I think this leads to their social value. Poker, on the other hand, is lacking in this respect.The argument aside, I don't think poker should po

Justblaze:I'm confused on what your getting at...Are you talking about the definition of gambling in the legal sense?Are you talking about gambling as a social stigma with no regard to legality?Are you just talking about the word in relation to Webster's?Each argument is different and would be easier if we stopped jumping from one to the other.

Education, business, and investments possess a social need. You really can't make the same argument for poker.

This is not the expectation of buying food. Like Royal Tour said its an exchange of goods. And food isn't exactly caveat emptor. You would be entitled to some remedy.

I wish I had a link for context, because this statement is too funny on its face.

What's a good book for sports betting basics? I pretty sure parlay bets are sucker bets...what about the "if bets" on sportsbook.com?

Can you imagine all the fish who think it's no different than flipping coins. Oh....that would be beautiful.Indeed, the Pre-Shoot strategy in this game is mind-boggling. When I won the RPS Champion in 2002 I had a great read on "Wristy" Franklin Rhodes, He always shoots scissors from the 'hand shake' position, this gave me an edge to run rock at about 66%.Vegas Vacation did for RPS what Rounders did for Texas Hold'em. It's time RPS gets the internet surge poker has, dontcha think?RPS will only go the way of holdem if they introduce behind the back cams..."Oh, Vince, now we know that hes domi -

opinions on mike caro's book of tells
kindofblu replied to Abbaddabba's topic in General Poker Forum
