In today's Las Vegas Review-Journal, Barry Shulaman, the Card Player Publisher, gave an interesting interview where, among other things, he stated the following:


Q: "Are there concerns about poker crowds? Is there an unsavory element associated with poker?"


B. Shulman: "Poker has railbirds. These guys are totally broke. They don't work, they are not retired and they are bad people. We have done a poor job as an industry keeping railbirds from polluting the major-tournament scene."


I wonder if this is the prevalent sentiments among the poker players, tournament and side game alike, towards the railbirds.


What you think about it?
