Default Re: All regulation is doomed to fail, but it can be a bitch meanwhile

I dont agree that ALL regulation of internet poker is doomed to fail, it truly depends on the extent of the regulation. A system not too different from the one in the UK (the tax part is not transferable to the US market) is probably where we are going, and as long as it allows open foreign competition, it should be a great thing for poker because it will bring back the fish with open legality and easy funding.

Of course, a heavy handed, overly bureaucratic, high tax, high licensing scheme is one legislative possibility. If THAT were to occur, I agree with you CJ, the majority would go elsewhere so long as they can still fund it.
