Why I Sleep Soundly At Night Whilst Promoting Poker
Posted by Mal | February 8, 2010 | Posted in: Articles | Comments (0)As I write extensively about online poker and run my own poker website I hear from many people who make it their mission to spread their message that every poker site is rigged and that poker is a sin and gamblers are all flawed addicts. This may be true in some cases, but I must make a defence at why I believe this is not the case. Poker is a great way to get entertained both outside in a social setting and at home online for a relatively cheap price and on the whole I believe players engage in poker with control and awareness of potential dangers.
T.J. Cloutier has found himself back in the headlines recently regarding the pawning of a WSOP bracelet which was then subsequently sold on by the pawnbroker. It highlighted that Cloutier is alleged to play a lot Craps for long sessions and other casino games. With over $9 million in tournament prizes over his career this being used by anti-poker campaigners as an example that appearances can be deceptive over many apparently successful poker players being gamblers and secretly harbouring great losses through wagering in various forms.
