I play poker, bet on sports and play casino games online. Subsequently I find myself at many poker, sports betting and casino forums. I have observed a couple of things over time:1. The percentage of people who seem (from their forum posts) to be problem gamblers is highest at sports betting forums, then casino, then poker.2. The 'I've been ripped off' complaints also seem to follow that pattern: Lots of sportsbook complaints, then casinos, then poker rooms.Do you think that there is a correlation here? That either1. Dirty operators go where the most degenerates are - sports betting?or2. The degenerates bitch the most?Or are my observations not accurate from your perspective?

At first pro poker players can get a little star struck when a movie star sits down at the table. If they let themselves get confused or fancy, the amateur player might even make off with some of their money.

Nobody is surprised when somebody with an endorsement deal from PokerStars or Full Tilt wins a World Series of poker circuit event.

Some people look really good in Capri pants and four inch heels. Others look like they charge by the hour in an outfit like that.
