Message: [QUOTE="RichKo, post: 995689, member: 43216"] So you're saying trading stocks online should be illegal?! NO. Poker is a game of skill, not chance. Yes there is some chance involved, but there is a chance the next time I cross the street I'm gonna get hit by a bus. So by your definition, going outside is gambling, cause life and death are some pretty hefty stakes. Stock trading, to someone who knows what the hell they are doing, is not gambling, just cause theres a chance he could lose. But if I were to just start buying stocks it would be a gamble, cause I know absolutely nothing about trading. Poker is a skill that attracts gamblers. A true game of chance is like the slots, when the little cherrys line up, you win, if not you dont. Or roullette, you bet red, it lands black...you lose. So by that logic, the best hand in poker always wins and the worst hand always loses. [/QUOTE]
