Default Re: What would you do..

1. Are you asking what we would do if the US bans poker, but it can still be successfully played overseas?

2. Or are you asking what we would do if the US bans poker, and all the US pros figure out a workaround, but there aren't enough European fish to make the game really profitable anymore, or at least less profitable than a normal full time job.

The first case seems like what most people are answering. If the poker environment is still lucrative without the US fish, then I imagine all the high stakes guys will figure out a way to get a foreign bank account combined with a proxy server so they can still play against the europeans. I doubt anyone would have to move.

The second case is more difficult, since the whole poker economy will be ruined so that the only real money would be in playing live at the casino. In this case you either have to move to Vegas, or get a job. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
