I have a bad gut feeling...
 

Dear American People, you have my sympathies.

This new act is a tragedy for your poker players, but also to the entire poker community. I've read threads about "how great to get rid of the trash-talking Americans etc" but what actually happened is they took away 2/3 of my competitors and fellow poker friends.

I'm Swedish and right now I'm in Florida so cant either play Party Poker which used to be my favourite site. That's not really a problem, I can play Stars, or I can go back to Europe or Canada or Latin America. But that is just me, if I was one of you guys, and I see how you are struggling, just read about Maryland habitants who can't use Neteller for deposits, I've read about the desperation in forms of moving away from USA...

What I'm trying to say is that it's gettin bad, real bad... Can't you feel it's getting worse? The loopholes isn't the issue here. We shouldn't discuss the alternative payment methods, the sites allowing US players, instead we must reaaly do something, now!

Put some pressure on those damn politicians, if all online poker plyers (there must be millions) said, we wont take this anymore (with a loud voice) something got to happen. I refuse to believe the senators and congressmen really understood what tragedy this is to so many people when they voted. We must stand up.

I have a bad gut feeling, this is just the beginning. It's just a matter of time until you guys cant reload your accounts at Poker Stars and Full Tilt. It's just a matter of time until you can't play there at all. Then Canada, Scandinavia and many countries will follow.

Those are my feelings.........good post.....I think we can lay like cattle and chew the cud.......or we can make a stand hopefully in a mass...
I just love the "no sayers" on this sight that have nothing but negative input...
I have moved from party to poker stars and had a reasonably good session yesterday...
Little better players in general.....less variance , and as long as Stars stays in U.S....

I really think a march on washington is the best way to start. I am ready.

Is it possible to oust the pres of the PPA and put someone who knows how to get things done in his place?

Seriously,

IF an intelligent clean cut celebrity poker fan would take the reins on this issue....lots of dollars....lots of press.....a march on Washington......with some realtime #s to show the Whitehouse...
Then maybe the press would see this as another liberty stripped from the people...
There has to be a "platform"...not just a gaming issue
