Default Re: IF Doyle got jailed? (hypothetical question)

It wouldn't be the first poker arrest for Doyle. I doubt he lays awake nights worrying about it.

The Justice Department has already said they do not intend to prosecute players. They asked local jurisdictions to follow their lead. If he were just playing, he probably has little to worry about. If he were promoting the site, i.e. involved in the conspiracy he might have some concerns.

Also, in regard to most state laws regarding online gambling .. They make a distinction between PLAYING and PROMOTING.

If? You realize he promotes DoylesRoom.com, right? Don't know what you mean by conspiracy, though.

Promotes it?! Hell, he owns it. I saw an interview with him in a magazine a few months ago where he was talking about selling it because it takes up so much of his time.
