refutation: not everyone in online poker has the exact same skill level.

but if I closed this atrocity it'd no doubt feed your righteous anger or whatever mix of emotions related to 'oh no gambling is evil' you're feeling, so it's staying open for public mockery.

Unless he's specifically talking about Omaha- in which case I concede because that game is the devil.
