And yeah, you can eliminate the luck part if you know how, but only if there is less people knowing how to do it than the ones that dont know how to do it.
I could not disagree more with this statement...

The main purpose of an online game such as PE is to offer entertainment for its users, which in turn, will spend money and help MA financially. If MA's sole purpose is to just make lots of money, then perhaps they are in the wrong business. MA is in the consumer business. Their goal should be to make a product that the customer/consumer will use and enjoy and will hopefully spend money on. I am not playing PE and depositing just to fill MA's pockets and bank accounts. I play to get enjoyment and get something for my money in return.

Tigerman... the way you have your statement worded, it sounds like MA is in the casino/gambling business. I know there has been talk about if PE is nothing more than just an online casino... but I wont go there... right now. :P
