Don't take this wrong, but you've said absolutely nothing that I don't already know.
But please don't be so naive to think that there are no problems ahead for online poker. Take a look at what's going on out there just because this legislation EXISTS - PKR, PokerChamps, etc. are no longer accepting U.S. players. Yes, they are overreacting, but their overreaction affects me. The bottom line is this: It is better to be proactive than to sit back and do nothing. Pick up the phone. |

I think maybe I over reacted because I thought the tone was becoming as shrill as I recalll from 2+2 3 years ago and earlier this year. Again, if everyone reads the Jaffrey article, it will be clear that even if this Senate bill passes, the result will be a minor pain in the ass for some players, but online poker playing in the US will not suddenly die.
Now, just because I say that doesn't mean i don't think we should pay attention. We should. So I'm going to step up on my political soap box just once, because I want my participation on this forum to be about discussing poker, not politics like it became on 2+2. Just once. Everyone. if you want to protect all your freedoms, including your freedom to play poker, here are 2 *don'ts*, one *do* and one website. DON'T VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS DON'T VOTE FOR REPUBLICANS DO VOTE FOR LIBERTARIANS <rant off>
