Same here. I mean, is this the only recourse? Complete banning? No middle ground what-so-ever? Remember though, we're still drinking alcohol...

I am from Canada, but this is still very bad bad news. I feel especially sorry for all of you U.S. players who find joy in this game.

Anyone have any estimates on what exaclty this will do to our winrates?

I don't expect mine to drop a huge amount as I've always played during the uk daytime. When I look around the table it's usually 50%+ Europeans/non-americans.

I think people used to playing peak usa time are going to have trouble adapting though and should prolly expect at least a 2-3ptbb/100 drop and possibly more especially early while they get used to slightly tougher games and worse game selection(for eg ft 200nl6max usually only has 6-7 games going uk afternoons).

Guys let's keep this discussion in the legislative forum or the cheese thread. If we let this impact the quality of our strategy forum, then the terrorists have already won.

I am locking this and not moving it to legislation becuase that forum is being overwhelmed with posts like this.
