Message: [QUOTE="finaltable1, post: 5275967, member: 187503"] No doubt poker is the most well known card game in the world. It's an easy game, and you're right, it's a time spending game for addicts. People you've mentioned... actors/businessmen and so on are spending time playing poker for a reason. It's the same reason, why they're taking cocaine, drinking alcohol, became space tourists. At the poker table they're looking for serotonin. In the reality poker teaches you some really low skills, playing poker your mathematical skills are down to 52 cards, divided into 4 suits, even a child or low iq person can do such calculations or keep them in mind. Even here, at cardschat, article is named "odds for dummies" LOL. Strategical thinking? You have current strategy which is based on equasion of current hand and your future strategy is based only on the reputation of your previous hands and cashes. That's all. Behavior specialists? Hey, there are 3 possible emotions at the poker table, fear/doubt/courage. It's easy to control them and it's easy to lie. Are you the one who thinks that human has 3 emotions, 5 senses and a special 6th sense that helps you to read the future??? LOL It's a complete BS, the myth that poker is a intellectual game is the same myth like human has 5 senses. what about that sense of balance, when you're learning to ride the bicycle? what if if you're upside down or when you're in the falling plane? It's called sense of gravity. Do you still believe in Santa or Democracy? This world is full of consipracy theories and poker is one of them, cause this theory generates good profit. If you're thinking that poker is your game, because you're wasting your life by learning something new, then let me ask you a question. Have you learned something about the rake and how the online servers work? It's easy... Computer, which is a server... consumes like several cents of electricity per hour, maybe more, maybe less... and also consumes several cents of internet traffic. Now what is the difference for a PC server when it hosts a) 1000 player freeroll b) 1000 player $1.1 buy-in MTT and c) 1000 player $109 buy-in MTT ? By answering these questions you will also get an answer why football players like Ronaldo been well paid to play poker tourneys, you will also get answers why it's so widely advertised that some school teacher wins million in Spin and go and why some girl wins Platinum Pass and so on. What is the actual product that you create at the poker table? If you remove the cards and the table in poker game, who will be those people? Do they differ from Alcoholics Anonimous? Do we, differ here at this forum? [IMG]https://www.centeronaddiction.org/sites/default/files/resized-for-blog_35.jpg[/IMG] Be real. [/QUOTE]
