[NPIII]

Feedback for your letter.

Positives: It is polite and makes many good points. It accentuates the fact that responsible gamblers are suffering under SB 6613.

Negatives: Too long. Unlikely that this lawmaker will go to your link. Your link could be argued is from a biased source (online casinos). Also, according to Washington state law, anything with *any* amount of luck at all is considered gambling. You and I can argue that poker is a game of skill (and it *is*), but we can't claim that there is no luck in it. Therefore, according to state law, it is gambling. (That is another Washington State law I would love to try and change.)

I would also try to reword the "grey area" section about the Wire Act. Instead of implying maybe it applies and maybe it doesn't, you should say that there has never been a single court ruling that says the Wire Act applies to anything other than sports betting over the telephone.

Hope that helps.
