Default Re: Beat: ESPN piece on gambling

Yes, I am most def. dead on the inside.

I did not group them together though, I was saying that they are grouping Poker with Sports Gambling and saying that both are things where people always lose all their money, when in fact neither are like that. But they treated both like they were Roulette or something.

Anyways like I said, people who cannot handle this game are just plain stupid and it is their fault. It is not ESPN or anyone else's fault but their own. It is just stupid to group all gamblers with the problem gamblers and to say all the problems would be solved by mostly idiotic measures.

Problem gamblers gamble on anything, that includes poker. I don't see the logic in setting poker to one side.
