DN loses respect for Raymer

The advantage the seven players have is that they can (according to the U.S. Gov't and the WPT) advertise their site on television, while the WPT, who works within the laws cannot.

The reason they bring this up, is that these players are trying to claim that the WPT is "unfairly" making deals with casinos to run only WPT events.

It's all just ridiculous, and I've lost respect for most everyone involved in the lawsuit from the players side. Aside from Joe Hachem, who frankly, I'm not really sure realizes what he got himself into.

I have a lot more faith and trust in poker's greatest ambassadors than I do the seven players who, IMO, over value their worth to the poker world.

I'd rather side with people like Mike Sexton, Chip Reese, Barry Greenstein, and the like, before siding with seven players who went about this whole thing in the entirely wrong way.

This lawsuit is going to be the best thing ever. Watching all of these rich idiots take each other down instead of working together to build up the poker world will be highly entertaining.

The only downside is that it may be us online grinders who end up bearing the brunt of this misguided lawsuit if the lawsuit happens to grab the attention of Congress.
