Argument: Poker is skill because it matters who you play

[popesc]

A better argument for why predominant does not necessarily mean >50%:

Air is 78% nitrogen, but the 21% that is oxygen is the predominant factor in making it breathable.

Thats quite creative popesc, and I think I would use the part about "importance" to emphasize that "outcome" really should include getting the most chips not just winning the hand.

But no judge I have ever been in front of would buy the argument that "air is predominantly oxygen" [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] (unless he or she were bought off).
