Duplicate bridge and chess might arguably involve more skill than poker. However, the skills required are completely different. I just wonder if we can ever win this skill argument.
I like the personal freedom argument better than the skill argument. However, it would not surprise me that the political experts feel that we are even less likely to win the freedom argument than the skill argument.
