Really... It is like asking on an Irish forum: Are Irishmen smart?
What do you think, the result would be?
sure re skillful; I played thousands of hands of blackjack using andy bloch's brilliant basic strategy (mit bj team) in vegas for years before moving to hold 'em; but since the house has an edge, you still lose, though much more slowly. unless you join a counting team pre-shufflemaster, old days
ahhh...back in the day
I bought "The Worlds Greatest Blackjack Book" (Lance Humble Ph.D. & Carl Cooper Ph.D.) & Playing BlackJack as a Business (Lawrence Revere) and got myself warned by a dealer at Caesar's to remember the "eye in the sky". I got those books somewhere on my bookshelf...ahhh those were the days. Don't you hate it when people borrow books from you and do not return them!
I decided to give it up.

The results (so far) are displayed on p1, if you've voted. It currently stands at 65.2% "Not gambling", after 14 years of voting.
Jeez, even Brexit didn't take that long.
Yes, decisive like trading. When you place a trade you know the result beforehand.
Trading is a foregone conclusion of winning, that's why it's not gambling.
ET'ers predominantly know trading is not gambling, we are all rich, elite, FOS.
You caught me after all these years...
