Since you play on Absolute Poker, you had to know that this poker play takes place on the basis of the Kahnawake Gaming Regulations.

Didn't we establish like a week ago that the Kahnawake Gaming Commission is basically a joke?

I said: "There may be a lot of reasons to doubt whether this way brings something."

If the Kahnawake Gaming Commission and the Kahnawake Gaming Regulations are really a joke than playing online-poker at any Kahnawake Pokersite is a joke, too. At least from my point of view. I see this extraordinary case as an important test case which could furnish additional insights. And if you read the regulations and understand that no other law is applicable than you must concede that this is the only way that could produce reasonable results. Or do you really want me to believe that online-poker is an event without any control and hosted in a legal vacuum like in old wild "Wild West" times?

Sersiously - the fact that KGC is a joke is stickied in the Zoo FAQ.

Anyone who is arguing that the KGC should be attempted is demonstrating their ignorance of the KGC. There is seriously no response to any such claims apart from asking that they google KGC and see what others say about it.

To me, advocating use of the KGC is a self-evident way of proving you have no idea what you're talking about.

the only way absolute will ever be held accountable for this and for whatever other fraud has been committed is if the right palms are greased in whatever jurisdiction they're incorporated/located in.
