Other players profit from my good play? That doesn't make sense for a game like poker.

This is one of the most atrocious ideas I have ever seen.

Ever.

I haven't really had time to dissect the whole thing.

Obviously winning players get penalized. 1/2% of your winnings go towards the value of the stock.

Obviously you get penalized more for playing higher stakes also.

But if a ton of fish can use this deposit/withdrawal method and I can just keep on making my paper check withdrawals....

It also says:

"USPPINC anticipates offering shares at various levels to accomodate all styles of poker play. There will be a method, based on your demonstrated playing skill/ability to turn a profit, that will allow common player shares owners to advance to a Preferred Player stock level."

Maybe this means that winning players won't be taxed quite as much?

I think the idea is a little silly, however, it demonstrates that there will always be solutions as long as there is money to be made.

I think a more middle ground solution is a poker site (Absolute?), who has positioned themselves to very little, if any risk from the US.

And the same for a new e-wallet. The current ones were all vulnerable, you can bet future ones will be bullet proof based on the new legislation.

Sounded quite atrocious at first; sounds less atrocious as time goes on. Especially if u.s. sites become tag infested, and dont attract eurodonks; it would be nice to play at whatever publicly traded london based site retains eurodonks and attracts all the asian new donks.

How will a new e-wallet exist if banks are blocking the transactions?

If this or something like it works and takes off the company or whatever it is would be doing very well with rakeback.
