Default A Theory: Poker is Evil

Poker is Evil. Once you know how to maximize your expectation you will be in the long run a winner. That means there will be in the long run a loser that supplies you your winnings. These winnings come from somebody who did a job, a service, for the community. They provided something for somebody and thus were given pay. This pay was placed into a poker bank roll. The money was placed into a bank roll because the player (loser) had the hope, or rather the illusion that they would win. Otherwise they would not play. But this player is ignorant about poker and also ignorant that you (winner) have a long term edge over them. So you are winning (I don't know if it can be called winning anymore because you *can't* lose in the long term to a player who is ignorant) because this person is ignorant, playing off of their illusion that they may win, and taking (yes TAKING) their hard earned cash. In other words you are stealing money from a person. This person is in the illusion that they have a chance to win, they don't. This person is ignorant that they can't win. Poker is a legal way to steal a person's hard earned cash. You who know how to have that edge are playing off of somebody's ignorance, addiction, and illusion. Poker is Evil. You can't lose with your edge, that is theivery.
