That's the main long term business problem for them, I think, other than the regulatory stuff. How to keep the chum playing, how to maintain their perception that a little guy has a chance. |

I don't think it's hard to convince people they might be able to win. Look at the lottery. Millions of people buy tickets every week and a dozen or so win each year.
Gambling is pretty much an idiot tax. And in this country it's a tax we love to pay. |

I'm starting to come to the philosophy that the government should not be doing anything domestically that is illegal for a citizen to do. If citizens can't run a lottery then the government shouldn't be doing it.

I saw a magnet on a car a while back for selling fruit juice or some such thing, and it said, "If you're interested in a seven-figure income, call xxx-xxxx." Seven figures? Really? You'd have to be an idiot to even write something like that, much less believe it when you read it.

No matter if the government calls it a "skill" game, its really gambling. Unless you can't afford to lose every $ you bet, then you shouldn't be playing.
