The problem with poker (I used to play in college):
- If you don’t play with $$ it wouldn’t be that interesting
- If you play with $$ and win, someone is going to be hurt
I posted this poll in light of the fact that the Chairman of the Board at Moody Bible Institute has proudly announced that he is a high-stakes poker player. I wondered if feelings were changing on this subject among Fundamentalists (as with the alcohol issue).
I agree with Jim that even if you win at poker, someone gets hurt.
