Found an interesting thread on 2+2 and wanted to get some stories here on p5s.

"Players --

These are undoubtedly difficult times for the poker community. Whether you are full time grinder or a recreational player we have all been adversely affected by the DoJs actions that have effectively shut down our game. Rest assured that the PPA is doing all we can to lessen the impact of all this and while change wont happen immediately we are on the case. Tomorrow, all PPA members will be getting an email letting them know what they can do to fight back. Next week will be very important for us to get our message and frustrations heard.

Starting today, the PPA would like to begin cataloging the stories of poker players who are affected by the DoJ prosecution. We are asking 2+2 forum members to post their stories in this thread. The media is already clamoring to learn about how this impacts Americans. We want to direct them to this thread and to other places so they can get a flavor of the good and honest Americans who have been trampled on by our government. Please post your story here.

Also, if you would be interested in serving as a player surrogate to speak to the media please email us at mypokerstory@theppa.org with your contact info. We may be able to use your story with targeted media.
Thanks for supporting this small effort to tell our story. Again, PPA members will be getting more info on ways to take action tomorrow!

Proud to play,

John A. Pappas
Executive Director, PPA "
