Default Letter From True Poker re: State of Washington Residents

Dear US TruePoker Player:

Our records indicate that you are a resident of the State of Washington and have
deposited money in the past into TruePoker.

TruePoker is not in the business of betting or wagering. We have no stake in the
outcome of any game or tournament among players.

Although TruePoker believes that the UIGE Act of 2006 does not cover our
business, your State has been described as one in which it may be illegal for
you to play online poker. Please check with your local attorney to determine
whether your State laws prohibit your playing poker online.

We ask that you log onto TruePoker and check your listed location information.
If you have relocated out of your State, to some other State, where playing
poker online is not illegal, please update your information and mailing address.

If you have not changed your residence from your originally listed State, it
would be imprudent for us to accept further deposits for your account and
possibly illegal for you to play.

Please contact [email protected] if you need assistance in correcting your
location information.


Regards,

TruePoker

Michael Craig (author of "The Professor, the Banker and the Suicide King") has pledged to play online poker in front of the Washington State legislature, in the hopes of getting arrested (Class C felony in Washington).

I get the vibe that, without saying it, they are suggesting you change your address in your profile to a non-banned state.

The last thing they want is to lose your business.

I get the vibe that True's CEO who came to this board and assured us he planned business as usual is a lying sack.
