Poker Apocalypto: PPA Begs. Pros Turn Back!
How much money have the top pros themselves given to the PPA? They have not given crap and most of them are raking in millions from this poker boom. And the sites they are sponsored by give nothing either. The poker boom which made the pros household names is being destroyed yet they do nothing big for PPA, nor do they start a seperate organization to fight this legislation. Yet they ( Raymer, Lederer, Duke, Hachem, etc.) have no trouble coming up with the large amounts of money needed to sue the WPT--which has greatly helped fuel the poker boom and thus their careers. So they have plenty of cash for that but none to fight for poker when it needs their financial backing the most. Is it any wonder that the boom is crumbling??

Re: Poker Apocalypto: PPA Begs. Pros Turn Back!
This means nothing! It is nothing but a farce and lip service. How much actual cash are they giving?? How much actual cash are the sites that sponsor them(or that they part own)giving?? I will tell you how much---next to NOTHING.

The poker boom is far from being destroyed. 2. How do you know the pros aren't donating money. 3. I would sooner see a pro sit on the board of directors then donate and say nothing.
