internet gambling and killing people are practically the same thing. How could they not be attached to the same bill?

Just a note to anyone concerned. Please be sure to call your senator. Just a reminder. Remind as many people as you can!

Money laundering.

Only way i see is to dump money purposely to another player to make the money legal poker winnings. At no limit table you call an all in on the river with a hand that will beat the other hand. One player tells the other on the phone what he has and if the other can beat it he calls.

=clean money (perhaps it would be done after some real play to make it look legit and maybe through multiple accounts until it reaches the end person)

Yeah this is true, but think about it. What the hell is the point of laundering a few thousand dollars...I'll tell you...nothing. And I'm pretty sure the sites would catch one before someone laundered a legitimate amount of money. Don't let the rhetoric fool you, this is all about christian family groups who think gambling is a sin, the other reasons are just made up [censored]. I mean you don't think a site would notice after someone dropped a few hundred buyins to the same guy, or if 2 random people showed up at the biggest games and only lost buyins one to the other? In short, if you need to launder a few million dollars, there's a lot better ways to do it than on a poker site (especially since the party monster rake would take most of it anyway.)
