Hello,

I fail to understand why PartyPoker, Firepay, e.t.c failed to come up with the same logic regarding the legislation as PokerStars and others have. How can a company as huge as PartyPoker ban US players while Pokerstars, which is probably as big (Poker) sees otherwise? It doesn't make sense to me. I can only come up with the excuse that Pokerstars chooses to ignore the facts, even though their lawyers came to the same conclusion that PP lawyers did, and decided to see what happens before they pull anything.

Anyone care to enlighten me?

Party is not only on the stock exchange, they also offer casino games while Stars does not.

This isn't that hard. I'm at 10K for October already playing like 6-7 hours a day, and I mostly play stuff other than Sngs (which accrue really fast relatively).
