For the last time I have nothing against Varkoni.
Clearly Jamie Gold is a douchebag. Clearly Varkoni seems like a nice guy. Neither of those things have anything to do with the fact that I think Jamie is a better player than Varkoni. Therefore, Varkoni is a bigger "fraud" of a poker player than Gold. I'm not sure why this is so hard to understand.

Your idea that a true poker player must necessarily have some skill is what's mixing you up. Amateur or unskilled player =/ fraud.

Fine, I guess fraud may have been a bad choice of a word. Varkoni doesn't pretend to be a professional poker player, so I suppose he can't be a fraud of a poker player.
Anyway where was this thread before we got derailed? Actually I think it got derailed on post #5 so I guess we're lost now.
