Article: Gaming Law Editor on Reid/Kyl Bill: "Unites Every State Interest Against It" "According to Kelly, the Reid/Kyl bill states that licensees cannot conduct gaming outside of the United States. If a licensee does so, it needs to create a separate entity and not co-mingle funds."Sounds like tournaments should have an International field right' That is one of my biggest concerns. If Countries go to a model like France then most online tourney players are basically screwed. Posted in: vBCms Comments |

Article: Democratic Party Platform Contains No Mention of Online Poker "Obama has added nearly 6 TRILLION to the deficit in less than 4 years. The unemployment is nowhere close to the 8.3% they try to claim. And don't believe any of these claims about 4.5 million jobs added under Obama. There has been a net job LOSS under Obama verified by left leaning CNN and the Washington Post.Remember, your poker playing rights were shut down under Obama and his highly controversial AG Holder." I wonder if you realize the economic well being of the Country during a presidency is MOSTLY determined by the previous President' Remember that the GOP is the only party that has ...

FTP Answers 5/5 FTP Doug, Hi, thanks for the update. I don't blame Full Tilt at all as long as we get our money back. This is mostly on the DOJ's back. How can they fuck a whole industry when their leader isn't even sure if poker is a game of skill or not' I do have a question regarding playing outside of the US. Could you please clarify what you mean when you said you need a "photo id"' Can this be your US passport or drivers license' Something like a Costco card from that country with your address from that country on it' Does it have to state that you are a citizen of that country' Please be as specific ...

Article: Absolute Poker and UB.com Restructure Businesses I'm sure they have realized by now that the current situation won't increase traffic on their site. Now that they see this they may be willing to cut a deal with the DOJ that disallows Americans on their site. I'd say 70/30 people with money on AP get it back. Before reading this i was probably at 60/40 or less. Posted in: vBCms Comments |

Good strategy for a live re-buy tourney I'd shove any two broadway, any pair, and any suited connector bigger than 67+ 810s etc. during the first 90 minutes. Or something like that. Be tighter from early position if you must. Just a ridiculous all in pre open or 3bet jam. Get that first double up and go to an almost normal range. Who cares if you get all in and only have 34% equity when chips now are 50% off' This would still be a winning situation, even for a neutral ev player. Pay close attention to who is shoving light and try to call them with a slightly better range. Unless you already have more than 2x opening chips, then ... Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Skallagrim: Federal Law and Your Poker Money It seems to me like the PPA should be putting out some fund drive stuff. If we ever needed funds to fight the legal/political battle the time would be now. If we could get 50% of our enrolled membership to put in an average of even 10 bucks, that would be a huge amount of money. We could bring in even more great lawyers to work full time on the fight. It might be a matter of fight it now before they establish some sort of precedent that could last for many years. Thanks to all those like skallagrim fighting the fight.

Article: Deal Struck to Return PokerStars, Full Tilt Poker Player Funds So is the DOJ approving real money play outside America by Americans' Because that is something, it might mean we don't have to change our nationality in order to play from outside the US. I wonder if the sight would allow it' There are lots of countries you can legally stay for 3 months if you leave the country for a few days every 90 days. For those of us who do well playing professionally this might open things up until International Online Poker is legal again in the US. My guess would be about 6 months or so until this happens in the first States. Posted in: vBCms Comments |

SNG 3 handed Some people resteal a lot, some don't. If this is the guys first reraise i think it is a close call. Otherwise it's an insta call for me. When you said he was aggeressive it was a no brainer, then you later said it was his first reraise so that is very different here. Has he seen you fold to a reraise yet' That and how often you have been raising lately are probably the 2 other most pertinent q's. If your raise percentage is over about 18 percent i insta call as well. Posted in: Poker Discussion |

I´m looking for a State to move to on the West Coast to play online Poker. Any suggestions? I´d appreciate some feedback on where i should move to play online poker. I am a fairly succesfull poker pro who can´t move back to my home state of Washington. Thanks to their BS rulings i can´t live close to my family in the Bellingham or Seattle area as i had been planning for some time now. I´m thinking of moving to Oregon or California. If i move to Cali i want a town under 150k population on the coast somewhere. I´m really concerned about 2 things. The legislative climate in regards to Poker and the quality of life. Cost of living is a consideration too i guess since i will be making ... Posted in: Poker Legislation |

What tilts you the most when playing online? 1. Holding a monster starting hand real late in a tourney and getting disconnected after seeing a couple calls or a loose player raise pre flop. (this happened to me one time when i was on the bubble of the 400k on ft needing some more chips) 2. Waitling forever to crush an overly aggressive pre-flop player then taking a bad beat. Like getting them pot commited with your kings preflop then having their a8s hit on the flop. 3. Kicking butt at a final table then taking a bad beat from the only other player that could hurt you. No. 4 would probably be missing an ad-on. Posted in: Poker Discussion |
