Just because some people like Jerry Yang and Jamie Gold have been blessed with card abilities beyond those that seem capable by a human doesn't mean we can all aspire to be like them.

I love this stat. I didn't know over a hundred million Americans were multi-billionaires. And I used to think Bill Gates was rich.

nice work.

the best ones are definitely these two:

[ QUOTE ]
# An estimated 100 million Americans wager over 600 billion dollars annually.

[/ QUOTE ]

and

[ QUOTE ]
# Americans gamble more money than they spend on groceries.

[/ QUOTE ]

so the average american gambler (assuming those 100million are the total population of american gamblers) loses $6billion/year on gambling (i'm assuming the gambling here is a loss, otherwise, this would make sense [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]).

those same american gamblers probably don't spend the GDP of small countires on food each year...though judging by the waistelines in this country it probably isn't far off.

and isn't that the next step? protecting us from ourselves in terms of food? i mean, really...McDonalds kills more people than gambling...and far more of its patrons likely suffer from depression (since poor fat people are more likely to consume mcdonalds than rich thin people), shouldn't mcdonalds be treated as a criminal organisation?

I really hate America.

Seriously, the hypocrisy of our nation is outstanding. Glorify a game that involves degenerates on national TV, but bust their house in, take their [censored] if they are doing it at home. Amazing.

[/ QUOTE ]

It's not hypocrisy. Nice try but focus this time and come up with a better word.

If you really hate America, feel free to express yourself and run afoul of the law somewhere else. I am sure the rest of the planet will tolerate the behavior that you personally find acceptable.

I think this stat comes out to 6,000 per gambler per year.
