though you guys might not launder money, or know anybody who does, that is a pretty reasonable argument. there are different degree's and types of money laundering, and online poker is a very very easy way of legitimizing a bunch of illegitimate cash very quickly. i could think of a hundred different ways you could do it without raising any problems for yourself. i didn't listen to the link, but did they talk about tax evasion as being a problem in their broadcast also? i would think thats a big issue for the govt. what it comes down to is if the govt. can't make the percent they want to off something, then [censored] it, it becomes illegal. same reason why weed is still illegal IMO, because the govt can't figure out how to tax it in a way to make it worth their while. alcohol, cigarette's, casino gambling are all things that the govt can tax you on pretty easily and therefore no matter how bad people think they are for you, as long as they make enough they could care less
