For some reason, the press will often portray gambling in a negative light. I've just read
this story from the BBC about a kid who failed to look after his bankroll and acquired high debts.
The story seems a bit rediculous to me. Someone has to lose at Poker. And the kids parents think it's a disease just because he didn't study properly before upping the stakes. And subsequently lost. He should have used Texas Calculatem!
Anyway, the big Poker won't let such stories hinder them, and I'm confident that the fish will continue to feed the $50 challenge.
