I think there are a huge number of potential players that don't sign up online because they think it's "illegal".

Whenever anyone finds out I play online, I know there is about an 80% chance that they'll ask "isn't that illegal".

I told my mother I was quiting my job to play poker 8 months ago. She is still freaking out. At one point she got advice from my unlce on what to do. My uncle was very concerned telling my mom I was dealing with very shady people and was liable to end up being murdered. My mom would call me crying all the time to try and get me to stop playing. It was very funny but kind of sad at the same time.
