I do play some poker machines. Only the ones that pay 100% or more back.
Before 1980 I played poker and Gin for a living. I took my 1st job at that time and only play poker once in a while at this time.

To play winning poker you must treat it as a job and devote full time to it. You never forget how, but like anything else, you lose your sharpness.

By the way, I have played poker with Sleepout Louie. I beat him out of a large amount of money one night. He never sleptout again while I was in a game with him. All of you illegal collectors will know who he was.
