His arguments are so weak. Was his last paragraph a legit challenge or just a hot fart?

When you create a post, there is an option to "add a poll to this post"

Right now I think the burden of proof for online poker is on Mr. Kyl's side and not us.

It is important to note that the UIGEA does not affect online poker for entertainment. If a poker player does not bet with a gambling entity or stake anything of value on the game, it does not constitute “gambling” and does not violate the law. Your Saturday night poker game is not affected. Nor are “dot-net” and other poker sites that are free to play. Poker enthusiasts are not deprived of the opportunity to play the game – only online financial gambling is affected.

What a d-bag.

Hasn't this already been proven in court? Billy Baxter had a case against the USA on pretty much this same issue which he won. I have no idea about the details but someone should look into it.
