serious question (don't wanna start a thread over this) and i don't think this has been discussed, but how likely is it that this whole scandal could be used to define poker as unlawful gaming in UIEGA?

As has been suggested by others, this scandal will be used against us unless the larger poker community gets out in front of it. I posted in the legislation forum that I view this as a test for the PPA. I would hope that they are currently writing up talking points for anyone who interacts with the media and that they are coordinating responses from the other poker sites. This is an incredible opportunity/threat depending on how it is handled. We'll see.
