Interesting rumor – Binion to buy in to Full Tilt? [Update: FT loses gaming license]

Pokernews.com has an interesting interview with Dwan.

, also available as a podcast.

Aside: I'm amused at his use of poker speak in the context of real-world situations. Example - asked if he is concerned about the possibility of violence against him or the FTP guys, he says he'll try to "fade" that, as if he was dodging being redrawn out on.

Not included in the transcript is an interesting anecdote about him being on USO tour, visiting soliders fighting for freedom in repressed lands (were poker is legal, BTW), only to come home to the land of free on Black Friday, to find out the government has essentially outlawed his livelihood.

There is also a thread on 2p2 where he is answering questions. Here is a link to the condensed, readable version:

Sounds pretty fucked up.
