Re: Annie Duke Interview Controversy regarding Ladies WSOP event.
1. There are some things that women only can be taught. Like how to handle being part of a minority in the poker world. That does not apply to men, and thus does cannot be taught in mixed classes. Furthermore women, in my experience, less likely to jump to a challenge they're not prepared for than men are. That is, I find it very likely that women in general might need a little bit more encouragement to start playing. This is all very broad and general, of course.

Funny, I and a majority of others don't feel like we are being treated as lessor players because of our gender.

Well, you are. There's even a special event for your kind only.
