For the advantage &lt;/del&gt;of &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;all, the following article shall clear up several of the more common misconceptions&lt;/del&gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Then again, if you never play poker, as well as your entire experience &lt;/del&gt;of the game &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;is what you read in print and find out in movies, you probably have several wrong ideas. That is to be expected. Please, allow me to enlighten you on a couple of points.&lt;/del&gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Poker isn't casual. Many individuals think of &lt;/del&gt;the game &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;as a mellow social pastime, where friends sit around drinking, laughing &lt;/del&gt;and &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;whooping it up&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;The truth is&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;there's nothing friendly about poker&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;You may be cordial with others at your table (&lt;/del&gt;and &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;you should be)&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;though &lt;/del&gt;the game &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;itself is vicious&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Played properly&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;it&lt;/del&gt;'s &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;a form of warfare. It can be aggressive battle for domination&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;I think of poker as &amp;quot;violence, without the violence.&amp;quot;&lt;/del&gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;A poker face isn't &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;main requirement to play. I can&lt;/del&gt;'&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;t tell you how often I hear this misconception. Nearly every time I mention poker to someone whose only exposure to &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;game will be &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;media, I hear some lame comment like, &amp;quot;Oh, you need to have a great poker face&lt;/del&gt;.&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;&amp;quot; No, a poker face, a steely-eyed gaze, is just not &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;essence &lt;/del&gt;of &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;skillful play&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;True, you don&lt;/del&gt;'&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;t want to be sending tells to your opponents&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;although &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;so-called poker face is widely misunderstood. The capability to create a poker face doesn&lt;/del&gt;'&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;t make you a good player. Consider this: When you play online, everybody has a poker face.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Winning at poker is not easy&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Blame television for this one&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;You generally see only the winners on television. Folks that win get the most exposure &lt;/del&gt;and &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;are most often featured. The final table in &lt;/del&gt;a &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;tournament&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;as an example, is comprised solely of players who are winners. Very little attention will &lt;/del&gt;be &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;paid &lt;/del&gt;to &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;people &lt;/del&gt;that &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;lose, say nothing of &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;vast majority who bust out of tournaments without fanfare&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Playing well takes a tremendous amount of study, discipline and practice. Succeeding at the game is far from automatic&lt;/del&gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Women can play. The idea that poker is exclusively a man's game is another falsehood. Years ago&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;many well recognized authors wrote that women don't have the killer instinct necessary &lt;/del&gt;to play well. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Time has proven &lt;/del&gt;that &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;theory wrong&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Presently, women compete &lt;/del&gt;at &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;every level, and a lot &lt;/del&gt;of &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;skilled women win in cash &lt;/del&gt;games &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;and tournaments&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;The idea that poker is a man's game is laughable currently&lt;/del&gt;, and &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;I wouldn't have included it among common misconceptions were it not for the fact that &lt;/del&gt;many &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;still believe it&lt;/del&gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Poker just isn't a game &lt;/del&gt;of &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;mathematics&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;In blackjack, for example, you always have one best move at any moment&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Your task is to find out what that move is. If you have 13 &lt;/del&gt;and &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;the dealer is showing an ace, then you should hit&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;That is always true, no matter who is seated &lt;/del&gt;at &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;the table or what they are doing&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Poker is &lt;/del&gt;different. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;You need &lt;/del&gt;to &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;take other players into account, and &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;mathematically preferable move may not be wise. Top caliber players often debate what is the best move &lt;/del&gt;in &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;a particular situation. Poker can't be reduced to mathematics because there are actually too many human factors&lt;/del&gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Poker is a not game &lt;/del&gt;of &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;luck. This really is probably &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;most frequent misconception, and it is dead wrong. Luck averages out. Over-time, all players receive the exact same portion &lt;/del&gt;of &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;good hands and bad hands. The real difference is what players do with those hands. A great player &lt;/del&gt;will &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;maximize &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;amount won with good hands and minimize the amount lost with bad hands&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;The key element &lt;/del&gt;that &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;separates winners from losers, over-time, is not &lt;/del&gt;the cards &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;dealt, although &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;decisions made&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Stu Unger, three-time World Series &lt;/del&gt;of &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Poker champion, put it this way: &amp;quot;In &lt;/del&gt;cards&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;, &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;luck always balances out&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;The great great online casino; [http&lt;/del&gt;:&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;//saskatoon.cs.rit.edu:10001/u/frankchiaang simply click &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;following article]&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;players will be going to win. Any player that thinks card playing is a game of luck&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;I'll show you a fool&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;That is precisely what &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;losers always say&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;The winners do not be worried about &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;short term; we play for &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;long term&lt;/del&gt;.&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;&lt;/del&gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Cheating isn't rampant. The prevalence of cheating is another incorrect impression held by many. In private backroom &lt;/del&gt;games, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;cheating does happen occasionally&lt;/del&gt;. But &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;in modern casino cardrooms and high-profile tournaments&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;where most of today's professionals play, cheating is virtually nonexistent. (Online, on &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;other hand, is another story. It's possible to cheat when playing on &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;net, as a result &lt;/del&gt;of the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;nature of &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;technology.) Although cheating is technically possible in certain situations&lt;/del&gt;, and &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;it does happen&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;it really is not nearly &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;factor that lots of people suppose. If you are hesitant to play poker out of fear of being cheated, you are overreacting&lt;/del&gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Poker is not an addiction. Regardless of what &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;media would have you believe&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;the majority of &lt;/del&gt;poker &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;enthusiasts play while they enjoy the game&lt;/del&gt;, &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;not while they are hooked &lt;/del&gt;in &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;certain way&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Sure, a tiny number &lt;/del&gt;of &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;players do struggle with addiction, but they are people who an addictive personality, whether or not they play poker&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;We must not blame poker &lt;/del&gt;for &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;someone's compulsive behavior anymore than we should blame sex &lt;/del&gt;for &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;somebody being a rapist.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Poker is not sleazy. There is nothing even remotely &amp;quot;underbelly&amp;quot; concerning this beautiful game. A great many good &lt;/del&gt;and &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;decent folks play for a wide variety of reasons, such as &lt;/del&gt;fun&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;, challenge &lt;/del&gt;and &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;personal betterment. Poker highlights &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;very best of human interaction and calls into play the most honorable of human qualities, for example courage, sound reasoning and self-control&lt;/del&gt;. The game &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;is an excellent way to build character.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Poker isn't illegal. Most of the people &lt;/del&gt;with &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;a functioning brain don't actually believe this, though the forces of misguided morality want you to believe that the game is against &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;law&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;It is not. Poker is not connected with crime &lt;/del&gt;within &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;any way. Nor is it controlled by &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;mob. Not is it dangerous. You don't need to be &lt;/del&gt;on the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;lookout for gangsters. Or gunplay. No, you do not need to carry a sidearm &lt;/del&gt;and &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;shoot your way out &lt;/del&gt;of the casino &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;to protect your loot&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;You've been watching too many movies&lt;/del&gt;.&lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;They are several common misconceptions held by many within &lt;/del&gt;the &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;public&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;If you encounter those that have these ideas, please set them straight&lt;/del&gt;. &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;But be understanding; it isn't their fault that they hold these incorrect viewpoints, which are passed off as fact everywhere in today's media. It rests with us, intelligent members of the poker-playing community&lt;/del&gt;, to &lt;del class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;spread the truth concerning the magnificent game of poker&lt;/del&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class='diff-marker'&gt;+&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;color: #222; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ins class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Game &lt;/ins&gt;is &lt;ins class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;a very peculiar side of human life &lt;/ins&gt;that&lt;ins class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;'s operated on its own laws&lt;/ins&gt;. &lt;ins class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;Within this game of gambling &lt;/ins&gt;many &lt;ins class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;things can happen, poor man may become rich or weak can defeat strong&lt;/ins&gt;. &lt;ins class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;There are various folks that want to become rich without any efforts&lt;/ins&gt;, &lt;ins class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;so gambling game gives &lt;/ins&gt;a &lt;ins class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;hope &lt;/ins&gt;to &lt;ins class=&quot;diffchange diffchange-inline&quot;&gt;them.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;If you play poker ordinarily, and you understand the game exactly since it is, you probably realize that there are actually misconceptions among those with no direct experience. You've probably heard many of these erroneous points of view. If you're like me, you spend a fair quantity of time explaining to uninformed people precisely just what the game is and what it really is not. For the advantage of all, the following article shall clear up several of the more common misconceptions.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Then again, if you never play poker, as well as your entire experience of the game is what you read in print and find out in movies, you probably have several wrong ideas. That is to be expected. Please, allow me to enlighten you on a couple of points.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Poker isn't casual. Many individuals think of the game as a mellow social pastime, where friends sit around drinking, laughing and whooping it up. The truth is, there's nothing friendly about poker. You may be cordial with others at your table (and you should be), though the game itself is vicious. Played properly, it's a form of warfare. It can be aggressive battle for domination. I think of poker as &amp;quot;violence, without the violence.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;A poker face isn't the main requirement to play. I can't tell you how often I hear this misconception. Nearly every time I mention poker to someone whose only exposure to the game will be the media, I hear some lame comment like, &amp;quot;Oh, you need to have a great poker face.&amp;quot; No, a poker face, a steely-eyed gaze, is just not the essence of skillful play. True, you don't want to be sending tells to your opponents, although the so-called poker face is widely misunderstood. The capability to create a poker face doesn't make you a good player. Consider this: When you play online, everybody has a poker face.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Winning at poker is not easy. Blame television for this one. You generally see only the winners on television. Folks that win get the most exposure and are most often featured. The final table in a tournament, as an example, is comprised solely of players who are winners. Very little attention will be paid to people that lose, say nothing of the vast majority who bust out of tournaments without fanfare. Playing well takes a tremendous amount of study, discipline and practice. Succeeding at the game is far from automatic.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Women can play. The idea that poker is exclusively a man's game is another falsehood. Years ago, many well recognized authors wrote that women don't have the killer instinct necessary to play well. Time has proven that theory wrong. Presently, women compete at every level, and a lot of skilled women win in cash games and tournaments. The idea that poker is a man's game is laughable currently, and I wouldn't have included it among common misconceptions were it not for the fact that many still believe it.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Poker just isn't a game of mathematics. In blackjack, for example, you always have one best move at any moment. Your task is to find out what that move is. If you have 13 and the dealer is showing an ace, then you should hit. That is always true, no matter who is seated at the table or what they are doing. Poker is different. You need to take other players into account, and the mathematically preferable move may not be wise. Top caliber players often debate what is the best move in a particular situation. Poker can't be reduced to mathematics because there are actually too many human factors.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Poker is a not game of luck. This really is probably the most frequent misconception, and it is dead wrong. Luck averages out. Over-time, all players receive the exact same portion of good hands and bad hands. The real difference is what players do with those hands. A great player will maximize the amount won with good hands and minimize the amount lost with bad hands. The key element that separates winners from losers, over-time, is not the cards dealt, although the decisions made. Stu Unger, three-time World Series of Poker champion, put it this way: &amp;quot;In cards, the luck always balances out. The great great online casino; [http://saskatoon.cs.rit.edu:10001/u/frankchiaang simply click the following article], players will be going to win. Any player that thinks card playing is a game of luck, I'll show you a fool. That is precisely what the losers always say. The winners do not be worried about the short term; we play for the long term.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Cheating isn't rampant. The prevalence of cheating is another incorrect impression held by many. In private backroom games, cheating does happen occasionally. But in modern casino cardrooms and high-profile tournaments, where most of today's professionals play, cheating is virtually nonexistent. (Online, on the other hand, is another story. It's possible to cheat when playing on the net, as a result of the nature of the technology.) Although cheating is technically possible in certain situations, and it does happen, it really is not nearly the factor that lots of people suppose. If you are hesitant to play poker out of fear of being cheated, you are overreacting.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Poker is not an addiction. Regardless of what the media would have you believe, the majority of poker enthusiasts play while they enjoy the game, not while they are hooked in certain way. Sure, a tiny number of players do struggle with addiction, but they are people who an addictive personality, whether or not they play poker. We must not blame poker for someone's compulsive behavior anymore than we should blame sex for somebody being a rapist.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Poker is not sleazy. There is nothing even remotely &amp;quot;underbelly&amp;quot; concerning this beautiful game. A great many good and decent folks play for a wide variety of reasons, such as fun, challenge and personal betterment. Poker highlights the very best of human interaction and calls into play the most honorable of human qualities, for example courage, sound reasoning and self-control. The game is an excellent way to build character.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Poker isn't illegal. Most of the people with a functioning brain don't actually believe this, though the forces of misguided morality want you to believe that the game is against the law. It is not. Poker is not connected with crime within any way. Nor is it controlled by the mob. Not is it dangerous. You don't need to be on the lookout for gangsters. Or gunplay. No, you do not need to carry a sidearm and shoot your way out of the casino to protect your loot. You've been watching too many movies.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;They are several common misconceptions held by many within the public. If you encounter those that have these ideas, please set them straight. But be understanding; it isn't their fault that they hold these incorrect viewpoints, which are passed off as fact everywhere in today's media. It rests with us, intelligent members of the poker-playing community, to spread the truth concerning the magnificent game of poker.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
