    Have Interstate instead --- create a non-profit organization that is regulated by the federal government that takes memberships. The members would be the states and tribes. They would be able to chose to participate or not in online poker. A pandoras box wouldn't be opened because the non-profit would sanction what poker sites would be able to participate. Based on track records from the members and players. Have several non-profits working together monitoring traffic, regulations, security etc. Keep it out of the hands of fat cat lobbist. What has more money potenticial a progressive slot machine or a house slot machine. If you limit online poker to a state or two even. You will not get anywhere near 41 billion in 100 years. Its a total package potential not easily broken up into egual pieces. I digressed a bit LOL a lot

    Indians can be so selfish and self-serving at times.

    They'd probably only allow limit poker as our brick and mortar here allows. If it was intrastate. That would suck if they could control the software in that way.
