Message: [QUOTE="SharkFinn, post: 5951002, member: 450775"] I think this questions has two parts: 1. Should minors be allowed to play the game poker? 2. Should minors be allowed to gamble? 1. Absolutely. Poker, like any game, can be played for money or just for fun. I don't think we should ban it as a game just because it is associated with gambling. A lot more people lose their savings by day trading stocks than playing poker, so should we also ban lessons on finance from classrooms? I think poker can be very good at teaching kids about logic, decision making and accepting what they cannot control (variance in poker). 2. Seems like a bad idea. [/QUOTE]
