US Taxes from poker
In the US its federally treated and taxed similar to the rest of your income. You claim your winnings and deduct your loses. Deducted losses cannot exceed winnings. Some states will let you deduct loses and only pay state tax on net, others expect you to pay state tax on all winnings (state tax is very small compared to federal). The guy above who admitted to not reporting 100k on his taxes is just brain dead. This can be verified by reading his other posts. The above is just my interpretation of the law. I am not an expert.

Spreading unsubstantiated rumors about site shutdown
No idea what any of this means, but you mentioned URL or link... I assume this means you read one of the thousands of articles on the web discussing Juicy and Lock not paying players and the possibility of them eventually closing and stiffing players. This is nothing new and has been discussed at length. Anyone who knows how to use google would not deposit on either of these sites.

Buy In For WSOP Main Event vs. $10,000 in Powerball
If that math is true, then 175million/10,000 = 17,500. In other words your chances of winning the powerball, given you purchased 10,000 tickets, is 1 in 17,500. If the top 8 places in the main event pay $1m+ and there are 7,000 entrants, then your probability of winning $1m+ (without accounting for skill) would be 1 in 875 It is worth noting that the powerball would pay much more than $1m though. So lets say it paid $100m (500m chopped 5 ways) now it would actually be a better long term investment to go with powerball as you would be winning, on average, $1m for every 175 times you ...

Article: Full Tilt Claims Administrator: We Haven't Received Any Updated Information
So the company in charge of paying back players is not aware of the settlement fund. Not off to a good start.

Article: Full Tilt Claims Administrator: We Haven't Received Any Updated Information
Strangely enough Stars actually paid back FTP ROW customers immediately after the settlement. Not sure why the US customers have this special process requiring a 3rd party and an absurd amount of additional time. Surely the government will benefit from this inconsistency somehow... withholding a certain amount for taxes maybe'

Article: Players React to Recorded UB Meeting Involving Russ Hamilton
"It's not taking the ultra high road. It's not saying we're not going to do anything. It's something in between, but the point is they're interested in coming up with reasonable arguments to minimize it. That’s a big part of what Iovation is doing right now." God I hope Iovation pays for this in the biggest possible way. They have become a massive company since then.

UB scandal - new information
And a second recording nearly 2 hours in length. Here Russ and friends discuss paying off people to keep quiet and concocting a plan to deceive the public into thinking someone else was actually responsible for the cheating. He also mentions illegally monitoring some of the cheated players emails via his inside guy @ Interpol. lol this shit is great :

Players Union? hahaha
The purpose, at least in my mind, would be to hire private investigators and a law firm to sue the individuals responsible for cutting and running with the money. In some cases when a site goes under its due to things outside of the owners control, but in most cases it involves the owners siphoning player funds out of the company over a period of time. When this happens you should be able to "pierce the corporate veil" and go after the individuals. The process is grueling and expensive. But for example if we had 50k to hire PI's and a law firm there would be numerous people being sued on ...
