Re: Is poker gambling?
Well poker is only gambling when money is involved. If those legislators think its not a game of skill tell them to put thier money up where there talk is.
However sadly luck or skill is not the reason this legislation is here. The reason is because all these people spent billions of dollars to make the dessert and oasis. They do not want poeple staying home to gamble. They want you in thier hotels, and ultimately losing your money in thier casino's. Cause if the internet was around 40 years ago in the form it is today. Vegas would be a ghost town.
Another thing is that all these people see a website like pokerplayersalliance.org and they say "I aint donating to those pros". Well if you say that your uneducated. This money doesnt go to some pros bankroll. It goes to help fight for US to have the right to sit in our homes and play poker. Or if you say "Phil Ivey got enought money he doesnt need mine". Then here's ya sign cause all the pros you see on tv and these websites dont have the money to match up with this HUGE powerfull offline casinos. It also doesnt help that the offline casino's are grouping together.
Will we see Fulltilt and Pokerstars fight together for one cause?
