The paradox?well I guess my opinion is that Poker isn't an entirely ethical way to make money.I dont think its a bad way to make money but certainly there are other jobs which contribute more to society, if societal contribution is part of ethics.................anyway I think it is ironic because although poker is an unethical profession, you need ethics to maximize your profit potential now a days in poker.For instance Doyle Brunson does much better than a cardsharp.
So I guess the paradox is sometimes you need ethics to suceed in unethical endevours.I have no Idea if I approached a rational thought.......O well
