Message: [QUOTE="RamdeeBen, post: 1634187, member: 71146"] It still is a gamble though, regardless of ones skill level, novice, medicore,advanced. I don't even understand what you're trying to get at. Obviously we have mixed views but I really can't see how anyone can ever say poker isn't gambling when that is exactly the nature of the game, making money thus gambling to make money regardless of how you trap or outplay someone. As soon as you pick up your hole cards, you have a percentage chance of winning the hand, so we either put money in the pot or don't. As soon as you do you have gambled on your hand winning you money. You don't put money in the pot with the intention of folding do you, as that would be stupid.. You put money in the pot to gamble and hope your hand wins. odds/wager=gamble? [/QUOTE]
