But, whatever . . .
I understand that you're trying to say that players are paying better players for experience, but it simply isnt true. The money that changes hands was not put in the pot for this purpose, and doesn't imply a vendor/customer relationship between the players.
Experience may be a by-product of playing against better players, or it may not. We've all played against people who haven't learned anything after years of playing against better players.
Maybe you are offended by the author saying poker players contribute nothing economically to society, and are trying to justify your position as a poker player.
