I honestly don't understand this point of view, or all the hate OP is getting from you and many others? To me it smacks of hitting a nerve, and lashing out in defense.
It's a good opening post, and a thoughtful piece, okay perhaps one-sided and a bit anti-poker, but why not make a constructive retort like Zetack made rather than just a hate post? How many points of view give both sides of an argument, usually someone gives their opinions, soemone else replies with the counter-argument. Surely that's not hard?
Too often on 2+2, threads descend into hate-fests when someone cannot think of a reasoned argument. Perhaps Britessential can make that the subject of his next thread?
