this article says that it's no longer illegal (for recreational players). is that right? i thought the only thing that was on the table was to reduce it from a felony to a misdemenor.

Correct. If you play from home, it is no longer a violation of state law in Wshington to play online poker (or other forms of online gambling).

Nope, still illegal (bill hasn't passed, reported vote-tally was actually for a different bill).
