cool story bro

lock it up

Why do I make this inflammatory statement on a poker player's forum? It should be pretty obvious: the poker fantasy that is being sold to young people, that by playing a zero sum game which produces absolutely nothing, you can drop out of college, achieve instant fame and fortune and never have to do an honest day's work in your life, is just another version of the toxic "get rich or die trying" message that results in millions of destitute, wasted lives.

I'm optimistic that we have turned the page on the Moneymaker-Bush poker boom era and that such times will never return. Having gone back to college myself, I am now devoting my free time to developing intelligent software to defeat online poker, with the ultimate goal of destroying the industry so that other intelligent people will realize that they need to find something more productive to do with their time. Once you kick the habit, I think you'll find that poker is an incredibly boring way to spend your time. For those of you who still find poker interesting, take a look at uneducated, perpetually broke old-schoolers like Eskimo Clark and Sam Grizzle, and realize that that's where you may be headed. Anway, wish me luck in destroying this useless industry!
