Default Interview with Michael Bolcerek, Pres. of PPA

Hey guys, good interview. Thought I'd share. For those of you who don't have the time to listen, Mr. Bolcerek was basically saying that there are 23 million online poker players in the USA while the PPA is only 120,000 strong. He needs members and he needs donations!!! Pony up the 20 bucks everyone, or you can kiss online poker bye bye.

Ehh, I'd suggest people don't bother. I don't think they did nearly enough with the 120,000 membership dues to earn themselves any more. It's too late for them to be a factor...they blew it.

Vote democrat in the fall and try to convince everyone else you can to do the same = infinitely more valuable then sending $20 to these jokers.

Prove me wrong PPA! Here's your chance to convince us.

Give me $20 and I'll take care of it for you. (Just kidding.)

I think everyone is being a bit harsh on these guys. It's a new organization, just getting a start. Michael has been in the media the past few days getting the word out and it will take time and money to build a lobbying effort. Just by the fact that they have more members will give them some clout. Just my opinion, but I think we need to rally around someone and these guys are as good as anyone we have right now.

Then let them come on here, the biggest online poker community in the world, and state their [censored] case in great detail. Make their best plea.

No offense, but I'm not sending them money purely on the urging of 2 people with 43 combined posts.

Also a good idea, but supporting a organization where we have one voice is needed also.
