I was reading that article in the globe, and it got me wondering. How many of you guys play poker? If so, for how much and what type.

I play Texas Holdem occasionally with some buddies, but never for a lot. The most I usually lose/win is 20 bucks a night. Its a good way to pass the time I think.

I'm somewhat addicted, but only with small amounts of money. I'd never play if I could lose a lot. I just hate taking big risks.

All of the poker on TV is really starting this huge thing. Its all over the papers and the news. Its particularly strong among college students, sometimes to the extent of it being a problem.

There's nothing like a good game of Texas Hold'em. As a matter of fact, 24 hours from now, I'll be playing and probably in debt to several of my pals.

I'm sure they do.

I hate it when people win big and then pass it off as skill, but when they lose they say it is bad luck.
