Default Re: I\'m getting interviewed on TV - help me!

I think you should be prepared for the Negative Questions. It's the negative questions that will trip interviewees up and confirm what our opponents are thinking!

Whatever you do... Do not compare Poker to other Vices when defending it... Don't say anything like "Prohibition didn't work with Alcohol and it won't work with Poker". Do not Mention addictions like Drugs or Cigerettes when asked about Gambling Addiction. If ever asked about Gambling Addiction make you sure you point out the hypocrisy of the legislation as much as possible... Mention the Horse Racing carveouts everytime you are asked a question remotely concerning addicted gamblers.

Bring up the numbers often. 23 Million People are playing on line poker. Bring up the Heritage and how Poker was played by your Grandfather and Great Grandfather and how it is an AMERICAN GAME OF SKILL passed on from generation to generation.
