Default Re: No, I am saying the argument fails because it confuses people

I'm not sure if that has already been said, but I would compare poker to money investment.

It's like to gamble on the stock exchange... why isn't that forbidden ? Is THAT a game of skill ?

Poker is same as money investment... on short term anyone can win, but those who make the best statistical moves will win on long term.

It's all about statistics. You can play your cards so that you will statistically win more then you loose.

I know everyone here knows that already, but I think the analogy is good for someone who doesn't understand that the luck factor doesn't count on long term... just like good investors will win on the long term.

Do I make sense or not !?
