Default The Weaker Sex

I could not help noticing how the chips toplist is now being dominated by women. Perhaps the time has come to scrap the Ladies toplist and replace it with a Gentlemans top list to give us guys a chance ?

Lol

As I mentioned in another thread, while understanding the idea behind the list, I find it actually sexist.

Either two separated lists.

Or just a common one (my preference)

Or the the three, gents, ladies & common.


The current scenario, defines ladies as "different" .... a form of sexism.


But I don't really care.

Putting it that way it does make sense. I mean I know I've heard some say that "I'm high up on the chiplists, but only because it's a ladies toplist". I also think that if there is a ladies toplist there should also be a gentlemen's toplists, and then a general toplist made up of everyone.

I'll pass. I don't really like tea at all, more of a coffee person myself, must the Salvadorean blood in me. FQ loves green tea though, so she might take you up on that offer.

"Poker is one of the very few sports where women can compete on a completely equal footing with men, so I don't understand why there are women only tournaments."
Who can tell me who said that?

I do find that when it is 1 on 1 the guys tend to just bet large and try to bully you off the table if you are a bit short stacked where as the girls are more patient. This isn't always the case but there is a bit of a trend in my experience.
