    ghosting, multi-accounting, collusion, underage players - stuff like that (I'm guessing)

    Yeh thats what we need, online poker to sound like something as shady as drug rings or money laundering. Thats what we need when Legislation is trying to be passed so that we can go back to playing without worry of when or even if we are gonna get paid. After the segment all your family and friends will be looking at you like a degenerate and the Legislators will have more ammo against you.

    And yet, we continue to play on sites that have cheated us and held our money without interest. And we celebrate and praise the players who have cheated, lied and broken the rules.

    We are all innocent and we are all guilty.

    Spanky,

    You have taken the words out of my mouth.... "And we celebrate and praise the players who have cheated, lied and broken the rules."

    "We are all innocent and we are all guilty."

    Talking about the guys who collude like crazy....you know it's a fact it is widepsread....if I was a math nerd and good with databases....I am sure I would be able to back this statement up with facts....but the common sense factor states the obvious...

    Teams of online buddies, through use of multi-accounting, playing mid to high stakes tournies or cash games....each texting or im'ing or use of phone...giving each other the heads up on cards they hold....

    It's the cheaters who to live with themselves...

    Thats why there should be a complete ban of online poker period....

    I was not saying that you were celebrating these cheaters - but just look at the threads when someone is caught cheating, colluding or multi-accounting. "They are nice guys", "what they did wasn't that bad", "teach me".

    If we don't condone and ostracize those that break the rules, then we are in fact supporting them, and we provide more ammunition to those that want to close down online poker for everyone.

    So you think that airing it on 60 minutes is gonna make the cheaters feel bad/scared and quit.. thats dumb... again.. nothing good comes of it airing.
