Thanks Lee. That's a nice message to read before heading to sleep. I was railbirding the WCOOP ME... nice job running the show there. Maybe next time you should tell Joe Hachem not to talk so much when the players are trying to make a deal for millions of dollars? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Come on Lee take a stand and fight for what's right. Players will remember it forever if you defend online poker and flock to your site.

If you can answer this question also: How can companies like PokerStars/PartyPoker just walk away from $6b in revenue. $6,000,000,000! Americans love poker, online or live, and we should be free to play it whenever we choose, whether we live near a casino or not. TAKE A STAND LEE! STAND UP FOR PERSONAL FREEDOMS IN THE USA! (and get paid handsomly for it)

Thanks for keeping us in the loop Lee.

Do you have a sense for when you will have further news? Even a scale estimate: hours/days/weeks?

Not only that, but most of their compettitors are going to wuss out and ban US players. Stars could be easily the biggest site if they keep US playhers.

Right, why aren't companies like PStars and Party fighting to the death for a share of $6b? Why are these companies even in business if they cant stand up for their customers one time and deal with some pressure? Can we get a poker site that will take a risk in order to get some serious money? Wish I was in charge of a large site I would tell the USA to go straight to hell, because the people in charge of the USA are just a bunch of hypocrites.

Gambling "tears at the fabric of society" (unless its horse racing or the lottery-AKA TAX ON POOR PEOPLE!) what a crock of [censored].

All the decesion makers for the gaming companies are already rich beyond their wildest dreams. The last thing they want is prison time. They're giving up an avalanche of cash for a small, but safe and steady stream. No brainer from their perspective, why gamble when you've already won?
