    I've read in a few players blogs that they cashed their money out already in precaution to this whole situation. For those of you with +$50k online at the moment, are you guys planning on taking most of it out and if so, how much do you plan on leaving online? Thanks

    I had 38K on stars and took most of it out for now , just to see what happens.... I'm going to get way off track with this post, was going to post a seperate topic, but while I'm typing here we go. But in the back of my mind.....Don't come after me for this, but just a crazy theory of mine, since I think most of the world is crooked anyway.....Go watch the video on loosechange911.com and see what I mean, I get into the juicy, way off based theories, which most if you think about it don't seem so far fetched. I personally lost 4 friends on 9/11 and after watching that video it got me steaming, ok anyway.... What if this is all a big bluff and the biggest and best bluff of all time.... Take a step back and look at what is at stake here for the U.S.government $$$$$$$$$$$, this isn't about protecting the people at all....It's about $, period... Bush may sign, he may not, probably will, but hey you never know. Take a look at the gaming industry stocks this week, crippled.. Major leaders down over 50%, Neteller down to $3.25 from a bit over $20... Insider Trading Oppotunities at it's best IMHO.... I'm a gambler just like everyone else here, I'm buying in very shortly. You honestly think a company as big of a role it plays in the onling gaming industry like Neteller will let the U.S. government attempt to take over 30% of it's revenue , maybe, maybe not. But it's a great buy at $3 or less if it goes below $3, I'm jumping all over it. Watch companies like pokertrek (PTEK) the company that makes the annoying computerized tables that were at the WSOP this year, honestly I'd like to have one for my home game and honestly have thought about buying one, anyway, watch this company stock soar through the next week or so, I bought it at $12.21 Friday and it's now at $14.56 today, may hit $20 within a week from my sources, it's told to sign a few larger contracts this week. Local US based companies in the horse racing and slot industry should do well as well, like Penn Gaming (PENN) Ok enough rambling, can't wait to see the replies....

    I am planning on leaving what I will need to feel comfortable playing with( bout 15 buy ins for rings) and taking everything else out. In hindsight I wished I would have cashed out my proifts a few weeks back, but oh well.
