I have always felt that there is a place for good, but losing players. It is fine if somebody is willing to drain away some money intentionally. It's no different than draining away some money at the craps table or in a slot machine. As long as you know that you are in fact losing in the long run, and you understand how much edge you're giving up, then you're just having some fun with some disposable income.
This is exactly the point I was getting at regarding golf. It's a hobby; it costs money; it can be fun. That's what I try to get across to people.
