[ QUOTE ]
For example, that protest in DC that was organized by some lady nobody's ever heard of was horrible, if it had been helmuth, ivey, negreanu, raymer, and a bunch of other well known pros and better planned it woulda had a much better result. [/ QUOTE ] Good point. And what would really encourage people to go en masse for a show of force like this? Free clinics by the well known pros. If a rally is organized, booths can be set up in which famous pros like Negreanu, Lederer, Duke, Sklansky, and others, can give free lessons and do townhall style interviews in which they will answer all sorts of questions from all comers regarding subjects like poker strategy, bankroll management, psychology, and of course, their opinions about the legislative landscape. In addition, if pro envolvement hit a critical scale, perhaps poker playing Hollywood and sport celibrities like Pamela Anderson, Ben Affleck, Dennis Rodman, James Woods, and others would be encouraged to join if only to gain personal notoriety for themselves. Plus, the whole affair is broadcast on all of the major blogs, discussion boards, online magazines, and sites so that the non-US players can also be allowed to express their support. Maybe, Doyle should find a way to get arrested. It would certainly cement his legacy as a poker player if he did so. Because he would actually be going out of his self interest and project his contribution to the poker world at large. |
