Poker is not gambling. Therefore, recognizing that poker is a skill game which can be played responsibly by adults in their own home and the govt has no business prohibiting it is not an expansion of gambling.
As long as I can breathe, I'm saying poker is not a gambling game. Say it with me, brothers and sisters. POKER IS NOT A GAMBLING GAME.
Say it until they hear it.

In BBV is a thread called "Why I don't tell people I play poker.", although funny, it does somewhat show what random people think of poker. Some quotes:
-U play online poker? isnt that rigged? how do you know their not rigging the cards dealt?
-But how much did you lose?
-Oh, so you're one of those people that contribute to the destroying of families?
-You play poker? I love gambling, I play roulette, I have a strategy, wanna hear it? Ive been 6 times now and I havent lost!
-Im good at poker, I can beat you, its just because im a good liar people can never tell if im bluffing or not.
-Do you count cards?
