What about the Mexicans in East LA selling $5 pirated DVDs out of their cars on curbsides, next to rolling taco trucks?

It's far from over. For those not paying attention, the doomsday predictors, pessimists, etc. The new bill did NOT EVEN CHANGE THE LAW : Read this article by a LAWYER (please note: not an opinion by a paranoid sports bettor).

The fact is, as many lawyers have explained, that the only thing the bill did was make a little more difficult to deposit to online gambling sites, mainly because many poker sites are affiliated with/linked to either online casino's (on which the law is still unclear) or online sports books (which are clearly illegal in the U.S. according to the Wire Actof 1961 as outlined in the article above).

I am not a lawyer. But when it comes to matters of the law, I take what a lawyer says with much higher regard than what others may opine regarding the subject at hand.

I would suggest that if Party and Paradise had not overreacted, that this practically would have gone virtually unoticed by many. Is it possible that this will make onlinepoker more diffucult in the near future? Certainly - but only in so far as the new law is enforced AS IT PERTAINS TO POKER. It is not, nor has it ever been, at least in terms of prosecutionary practice, illegal to play poker online (i.e. no one has been prosecuted by the Attorney General for playing poker online...ever.) Those of you who took U.S. gov't class hopefully remember: Legislature makes, Judiciary interprets - the judiciary has never interpreted the Wire Act of 1961 as applicable to online poker. Sports betting? Yes. Poker? No. Incidentally, it appears that Party & Paradise have decided to act as judiciary - and haveseemingly done a poor job.
