Anyone Supersticious

Jacen299

Do you every play hands that you might not normally, but because you see a lot of a certain card hit flops? Or you get to see a flop from the big blind in an unraised situation, and make a decent hand with cards you normally don't play, but then because of the hit of luck you find you play that hand in the future?

Jacen299;339580 wroteso you consider poker gambling?

If its held at a casino, its gambling IMHO. Some players may have an edge, but its still a form of gambling. Don't get off topic :)

On a side note, if you get all your money in on the river with the nuts, it ain't gambling!

Stocks/forex could also be considered gambling then.

Poker like stocks/forex is making decisions based on incomplete information.

Being superstitious is bad luck.

yes, but hopefully the outcome is a little more certain and you can find ways to spread the risk :)

Yah, so much for my Apple at $630, glad I cost averaged at $560. Think it will recover with the xmas sales, etc. RIM needs to start making money again and if the new phone is a flop, it will tank. I will probably buy puts the week before the new phone comes out. Can't see how it can beat the Galaxy or iphone going forward.

You do realize that RIM is making money right, just not what it used to..

Mark my words, RIM is a much better buy than Apple in the next year... We'll see beyond that..:-\

Now the Samsung Galaxy I like, just not sure where that whole market share is going nor more importantly where the money is to be made.

lol RIM is going bankrupt as fuck

ppl are literally getting made fun of these days for having blackberrys

droids and iphones PWN BB so bad its not even really close.

RIM holds contracts with tonnes of government and military departments around the world. They recently received a security ranking certification before even releasing the product they were pitching - a first.

I don't much care for the BB phones, nor the playbook, but if you think RIM is bellying up, you probably think Heffners girlfriends are with him for his looks.
