Poker: Verboten

January 14, 2008 – 8:01 pm

I’m interested in games and game theory, and poker can be used for illustrating points about human behavior, but as of now, any comment containing the word “poker” is now headed to /dev/null.  I won’t even see it.  Next month I may get around to updating my blog software to handle comments better.

Further on the subject of words, it’s annoying to me how the gambling industry is using “gaming” to describe themselves more and more, since now I have to be more careful when mentioning my hobbies (by “gaming” I mean board gaming, and *some* card gaming) — I don’t want anyone to mistake me for a gambling addict!
