Message: [QUOTE="blankoblanco, post: 747605, member: 11119"] this central part of your conjecture is wrong and has been shown to be wrong time and time again. most losing players don't make this realization thanks to the beauty of selective recall and all sorts of other mental mechanisms that makes a player believe they've just been unlucky (even for years). it's not really because they're insane. if anything, it's human nature so most of this money ends up coming from #2, obviously. if you're not comfortable taking those people's money, i'm sure someone else, like me, will be glad to take it instead. it's kind of a predatory game, but nobody is forced to play it. for some people, the entertainment value is worth the money lost [/QUOTE]
