PPA should fire Annie Duke

[Richas]

Why is it that the Poker "community" feels the need to eat its own young?

I suspect that to be a good player you need to be driven, selfish, pursue any edge, to be aggressive and to be inividualistic. You also have to be perceptive, aware and understand the maths but the "negative" attributes are very visible. Poker is not a team game and many players and commentators lack inter personal skills, they just want to win. I'm afraid like in many sports the nice guy comes last.

So - my advice is if you can't be nice to our friends just STFU. Annie was an effective spokesperson, she is on our side. Stop attacking allies and use your natural venomistic attitude to attack our enemies instead.
