I don't agree with this. I think the Jesus and the others probably really do think they are acting in the best interest of poker by filing this lawsuit. I happen to disagree with them, but that's not the point.
As for him not playing in a freeroll himself (having someone else do it) because he doesn't care about other poker players and is only out for himself, that doesn't really make sense... Remember, the more he plays an interacts with people on HIS SITE, the more popular his site will be (in theory) and the more money will end up in his pocket. So, by playing low stakes poker and chatting with the aerage joe, he really is looking out for himself. If he were to get "caught" having someone else do it, that would destroy the integrity of the site and could COST him money in the end, so why risk it? Either play as yourself or don't play. Having someone else play for you and then going out and risking being seen by someone who knew you were supposed to be online at the time would just be a horrible business decision.
