why are people talking about taxes in this thread? UIGEA has nothing to do with taxes. if you make money playing poker, you are already required to claim it.

the worst thing that might happen here is the sites passing off the extra costs of doing business down to the players in the form of higher rake (or less rakeback, bonuses etc.)

part of why online poker is so profitable is that its very low cost to run an online poker room. if b&m wanted to put up terminals for online poker like slot machines i think there'd be much higher costs.
also, why would people want to go to a casino and play online poker, when they can play real poker on a table?

[/ QUOTE ]Gutshot poker room London does this and the internet terminals are very popular.

Because it'll get taxed harder than it is already.
