It seems the future for American online poker players lies in the hands of states like Nevada. Pushing to regulate the industry and tax it. This is a few years down the road, but they are pushing to study the issue now.

So, if you are going to throw your support at something, I would go that route. You won't see short term results, but it may be the best thing in the long run.

Unfortunately, it's our best hope now for a *healthy* poker market online.

In the short-term, our best hope is that poker isn't completely killed for Americans 6 months from now. As in, there are still enough reasonable funding methods available for fish to get some money in, and keep the games at least marginally profitable.

I really wish I was a good cash game player. With the rake difference, I could obviously make far more money. Unfortunately, I'm not. I'm a SNG specialist. At one point on Party, I would have put myself in the top 2% on the lower buy-in levels. At Stars, I'm guessing that I'm top 15%, if that. Oh well.
