Default Re: Fight for Online Poker!!

I'm playing online poker right now and it works just fine. "Regulating" it - just means they get into our business more than now.

I hope all these measures fail.

And you think it will just stay that way on its own, like magic? Sorry, but that's the attitude that got us where we are today. HR 4411, the bill that became UIGEA, passed the House 317-93! In case you missed that....317-93! That sounds "just fine" to you?

Sorry, but there is no sustainable status quo. We're in an unstable area that will either be filled by a ban or by some sort of legalization. If the status quo does remain, it will because of the people fighting back, not the ones doing nothing but hoping even the Wexler bill fails. If there was ever a doubt about that, UIGEA passing should have cured us of it.

You're entitled to your opinion, but please at least consider why it is we're fighting back, especially before posting to discourage the effort.
