Hi BG,
the truth of the matter is that gambling has been going on for a very long time. To think that there is something new to write about on a level of continued fashion is probably dreaming.
find an article. re-write in your / her own words. and its yours. How many ways can you tell someone to hit a hand of 10 or less in blackjack and call it original thinking?
to my understanding …. it all about not being word for word. All writers learned somewhere and most did it by reading.
I have been doing it so long I don’t have to seek out other articles but I learned from reading .. and then of course experience. I cannot fathom anyone doing it differently. Some may have learned without reading about it first but that merely means they made every mistake they could have avoided by doing the research / reading first.
so I guess I’m a plagurist. but not one anybody can legally charge me with being.
