Article: PokerStars Takeover of Atlantic Club Dead, Isai Scheinberg's Role Questioned
I guess AC might as well just get used to permanently being in Las Vegas's shadow. This WAS their last chance to become the true players in the industry. Not that Vegas will get it right going forward as they HAVE and WILL continue to fuck up anything that has potential in their pathetic state!! You have to love the reasons for this...Isai...the criminal!! The true criminals are sitting on almost 1 billion of STARS money and roughly 250m of that US players!! Oh yea, when can US players start getting their money DOJ'' Anyone ever wants to play on Stars in this country again might as well def ...

Article: Ultimate Poker Launches First Legal Online Poker Site in Nevada
We aren't cry babies Diver1...just angry cause of two years of complete BS!! Also, the state of NV looks like they are one of the big reasons alot of this crap came down on Stars etc. So sorry if we are not all thrilled that Nevada rolled out the first 'regulated' online poker site. But they also can't take any steps in the right direction the way they are going about it in the silver state. Think about it...if Ultimate Poker/Station Casinos was able to team up with stars right now how much more do you think they stand to make even a year from now'' By bringing the giant MOST players want to ...

Article: Ultimate Poker Launches First Legal Online Poker Site in Nevada
Seriously' Time to pack up and move' How big do you honestly think this can get with just Nevada residents' While i say kudos for this site actually giving a fair shake with the rake so far, doesn't mean this will head anywhere. Nevada shut STARS out of their online poker market for 5 yrs min. This continued greed will further be their downfall. Once NJ gets things up and running and have STARS as an option and many other states who want to really MAKE money with this(by teaming up with NJ cause of STARS). Then Nevada will have to remember their lousy decision to do what they have done. Also, ...

Article: AGA Trying to Stop PokerStars' New Jersey Casino Purchase
Las Vegas is clueless as i have said before. Remember this is the same town that destroyed their own horseracing and sportsbetting businesses as well!! They made all the island and soon after European sportsbooks filthy rich because of their stupidity...of course they did the same with online poker. Mgm could have stepped up or and tried to buy Full Tilt and make good on US customers bankrolls and become heroes...why didn't they again' Oh yea, cause they sunk 13 or 14 billion (such a high figure i can't remember the exact amount anymore) into the ever pathetic and disastrous 'City Center' ...

Article: Bad Actor Clause, Fee Hikes Could Stall Interstate Online Poker in Nevada
Its just normal Las Vegas greed...they just don't want Stars back in cause they KNOW nobody will play on their SHITTY sites if they can play on Stars instead. They are costing themselves money continuously when they should be doing what Jersey basically just did. Let Stars in, ask whats our cut and then they will make money continuously with no problems while a REAL company shows their sorry asses how to do it!! If they never prosper from this it serves them right as they have killed all their big moneymakers in vegas casinos over the years..Sportsbetting, Horseracing and now even online ...

Not shocked...lived there for 12 yrs until i just moved back cause Vegas has no clue how to run their businesses over there. I mean Jersey has screwed up for a long time too but at least they got THIS right and are looking to turn it around!!

Article: Chris Christie Conditionally Vetoes New Jersey Internet Gambling Bill
The 15% is taxes the sites will pay...players will just have to report their taxes at beginning of new year like usual. Also, i also believe that foreigners should be allowed as there is nothing illegal about online poker and no wire act violations whatsoever anymore. Plus they can play on Bovada, Merge and Revolution so why not Stars and Tilt' Also, France and Spain recemtly decided to redirect their approaches on segregating their players from international prize pools. they now realize even more money to be made and more reasons for players to grind more and make more money. The sites make ...

Article: New Jersey: "This is a Major Victory. The Governor Has Shown Great Leadershi
When i hear about not having the poker rooms rigged i laugh. Cause who they are rigged for is the fish. Some of these players are soooo bad they would go broke even faster if not for the software. The software keeps them losing slower so that they keep coming back and feel they have a chance. So yea...i can deal with the sites being 'rigged'. Good luck everyone!!

Article: Nevada Interstate Online Poker Bill Read for First Time
The real deadline is Feb. 7th. I agree with what another poster that no matter what Christie does or does not do, this bill will become law one way or the other. Just sucked that everyone had to wait until the absolute last moment for it to be done.

Article: Chris Christie Called "Clueless" About Internet Gambling Legislation
Yes i think he knows that this is good for NJ to have this bill become law. However he mentioned his couple 'concerns' to save face with his Republican friends. I still believe if he does nothing and just lets bill go forward would be best thing. He can say he really couldn't decide what was right to do and then at least he 'wouldn't' have signed it. Plus it then goes through and that would be good. Time will tell, but time is expiring soon so we shall know very soon!!

You an me both...already basically had move-in plans going forward!! Maybe premature yes, but when stars pushed for the casino i believed it was cause they basically 'knew' he was going to sign. We can only wait and see like always.

'Im concerned about a new generation of addicted gamblers'. I don't believe he would say this unless told to do so. I really don't. It is a ridiculous statement and i doubt he would make it unless forced to. Addicted gamblers what a joke!!!

Article: The Man of the Hour: Governor Chris Christie
I agree. How could he not have signed this almost as soon as it hit his desk' The city survives off of casino's and gambling...not like there is much thought here. "Oh, this will make our city more money, keep and create more jobs and even help leave a couple casinos open in the near future...where do i sign'"Yes it should be that simple. Not like he will be hurting underage kids by letting them 'gamble' online before they are 21 and then old enough to wreck their lives and lose all their money at one of the very highly rigged house percentage games in ALL of his casinos!! With all that ...

Article: PokerStars Makes Offer for Atlantic City Casino, Could Reenter U.S. Market
I believe you are uninformed. How again are Bovada, Merge, and Revolution doing anything illegal' Once again, they remain open cause they AREN'T doing anything wrong. Not breaking any laws cause there are no laws anywhere that say online poker is illegal...even in this country now as we speak. Remember they went after Stars, Tilt and AP cause thats where the money was. They caught a break with Tilt and AP actually running their businesses terribly and beyond. However what did Stars do' Deceive banks' come on now, you don't buy that do you. Nobody...and i mean...NOBODY deceives banks. Its ...

Article: PokerStars Makes Offer for Atlantic City Casino, Could Reenter U.S. Market
Maybe they should learn to read then!! I just finished reading that French regulators say they have to change their rules and allow their players to pool with rest of world. Starting with cash games they say but i am sure they will allow it for mtts down the road too as they will realize that they are still costing themselves money. Good to see them waking up and following the UK's lead...now the US has to do the same!! They are bringing in Stars to make more money...so they should go all the way and make as much as they can. Like the great saying...'if you are gonna do something...do it ...

Article: PokerStars Makes Offer for Atlantic City Casino, Could Reenter U.S. Market
I think the thing that i am curious about the most is this. I realize that you will have to be in New Jersey to play on Stars when this happens. But, will they do the right thing and let us play the international prize pools' I mean we can from Merge...Revolution and Bovada(i think). So why not on Stars when they re-enter the US market' England recently did it right. They are taking i believe 15% tax cuts from all online poker rooms rake going forward but allowing players to still play international prize pools. Clearly the way to go they explained as the more the players play the more they ...

Article: "Dramatic Change" in Focus Coming for PPA
Yes of course it was corruption....but if anyone thinks it was done by Stars...they have this all wrong. The sites who offer all the sports and table games are still open for one simple reason. There was not enough money for the DOJ to steal or should i say squeeze out of them. Combined many many times over...Bovada...Merge and Revolution couldn't fork over 3/4 of a billion dollars. The govt needs money and will trump up any charges on anyone they can right now to try and make their case! Sad but very true!! However i do believe the best is right around the corner with this and we will have ...

Article: Will Chris Christie Sign New Jersey Internet Gambling Bill?
I imagine that by what we read saying that people outside NJ can play would have to be true. Online poker is NOT illegal and is NOT violating the wire act. We CAN play Merge, Revolution and Bovada in USA as we speak. I don't see what would be stopping us from being able to do it once and if Stars gets the license. Maybe we are wrong here but i would like to know how if so...anybody''

Article: PPA: "Completion of U.S. Full Tilt Remission Process is a Long Way Away"
Nevermind what country...but what planet do you currently live on'' It is theft, the DOJ, FBI and others have all been stealing money from people for years now. Maybe you need to learn a bit more about the US govt and their way of doing things before you pass judgement on people who already see the writing on the wall!! Oh yea they want us to get our money back in a fair fashion...then pay the players!! How come they didn't just let Stars pay it out like they did rest of the world'' Stars seemed to pull it off quite easily and quickly going forward. Maybe im missing something here''

Article: PPA: "Completion of U.S. Full Tilt Remission Process is a Long Way Away"
This kind of stuff just makes our country look worse and worse. Absolutely disgusting stuff. The worst part is that the DOJ and govt will throw any of our asses in jail if we don't pay taxes on the money we earn!! This country owes money to almost every country in some shape or form right now. But its just fine to STEAL innocent players money because there might have been 'money laundering' going on between the players. Any pro who was making big money in this country or anyone for that matter with a big score had to pay taxes on it. How could you hide a check for 200k that arrived and was ...

"Sorry, Mr. Online Poker, Nobody Cares About You" is the stupidest title ever. They sure cared enough to shutdown Stars and Tilt didn't they' While we found out Tilt got what they deserved why was Stars taken down again' Oh yea so the govt could find a way to squeeze them for over 700 million...thats right. Christmas is 2 months from today, any info on how to get our money yet DOJ'' Didn't think so. Pathetic, the government wants us to live by the constitution but they don't do anything even close to resembling that with their methods do they!! Just tired of all the bullshit.
