Poker as an internet sport can be broken into two - merit or demerit. Merit is what a player does best on his table, i.e. poker strategy, technique, and tactics. Ability is the result of hours of instruction using a poker instructor. The poker merit is measured by a player's ability to adapt to various poker hands and poker games, his ability to understand the sport and calculate the odds (odds are what counts in a poker game as opposed to'gut feel' or other kinds of thinking), and lastly his ability to be disciplined enough to stick to his poker strategy.
Merit is great because it creates a feeling of pride, not just in winning but in having the ability to say that you won a poker tournament, played a lot of hands for money, made a deposit at a casino, or simply enjoyed yourself at a casino.
