    Anything changed on the poker sites? Or is it same old, same old? Anything new in general with anything poker related, or not?

    like i said i haven't been following anything poker related, so i had no idea this happened. crappy deal, hope it gets sorted in the end.

    yeah i moved to Norway willingly. i was born here so i love this place! i moved from canada though, but they aren't affected right? who knows, they are next door neighbors, so they are probably next.

    makememaster you must be the trollhunter, and since i'm norwegian that would make me the troll. :)

    thanks for all the info tyson. no longer need any though, now i'm reading all about it....any chance there could be a total shutdown of online poker?? hope not.

    I've basically shut everything out for the last 6 months. Work, sleep, work, sleep, party on weekends. Even if it made the news here in Bergen, it would probably be a little article on the corner of page 62, or a 2 minute segment on the news. So i probably missed it. :)

    Looking forward to getting back though, or should i just send money straight to your bank accounts?? hahaha.

    No. It was a pretty big thing in Norway too. You've been under a rock these last few months?

    On behalf of Norway, I apologize for this soul, hehe.

    I started a small staking project on RPM, if you were wondering. It went well for about 12 days, but now it's started to decline. I'm close to busto, which will most likely mean the end of my poker career.

    Hope Norway is nice. Hit the slopes for us!
