Completely agree.

The other glaring fact about house-edge-gambling is that opponents who lose will always blame the house online...

"That site got 21 way too many times."

"It always seems to beat me by one point." etc etc

The only reason I even agreed to design the poker game we're working on is because I like the fact that if a player loses, he's losing to another player and not to the house. At least when you lose to another person, you have the hope you can get better and come back to reclaim your losses.

Of course, these are just my views.
