Default Re: Forward by Sklanksy of SSH

I don't play online, but I find this argument interesting.

You say it's easy.

I would then say, then why are there more net losers than winners online.

You would then reply, because they haven't read my books, don't use the info in the books correctly, etc.

The fact is most people don't make money online or at a B&M. Poker books have been around long before the current poker mania, but most players continue to lose.

Same as the stock market boom from 1995-2000. Everybody thought they just had to open a brokerage account and throw darts. So they bought stocks in questionable companies that went under or good companies whose stock price was overextended.

I do think that giving people unrealistic earnings expectations is not kosher.
