Default Re: PPA Washington Fly-In October 22nd thru 24th

[ QUOTE ]
The problem is that since affiliates benefit from only certain narrowly defined business models in the poker market, that their interests are only served by advancing such interests, and by blocking those of other players in the market. Since we as players want as many playing options as possible, our interests are harmed when such conflicted vested interests control an organization that supposedly represents us.

Finally I think I get it. Bluff doesn't like the PPA because it was founded by folks who stand to benefit from any success the PPA might have.

And, I can only conclude that he feels that any such benefit is going to harm his interests in some way.

Bluff, please explain exactly how you are harmed by affiliates advancing their "narrow interests". I am also curious as to how the PPA can simultaneously promote legal poker for themselves and oppose legal poker for others.

I have a lot to learn here. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
