Lobbyist gonna Lobby. Was a lot more like 95% focus on that hypocritical federal bill, while only resorting back to states if/when it failed like it did, as most knew/expected.
Some great stuff in there. But when you say, "There aren't hoards of new players flocking to the game", I immediately thought of Zynga and the poker apps that the general public is still flooding and having fun on. The problem is, imo, that most Americans think playing real money poker online became a crime in 2006. I agree on the majority of pokers new generation, or as I call them, douchebags.
To be fair Nicki, before we get too ra ra on the girl power, I think they have more appeal to you because you're woman. There are a few videos on some of these female players available on youtube i'd suggest to balance your opinion a little . I personally have little desire to follow the girls who sleep their way around the poker circles for knowledge and attention, relying on sex and it's appeal to advance themselves. Girls do make poker a lot more fun though.
Not sure where people got lost. It's in segments because it's a big story so they're milking it and also making it easier to digest. Interview seems fine, he's not gonna get Howard to change mostly prepared statements of "I don't know about that, never saw it, i'd be speculating."
Somewhat related, I tried listening to the podcast interview with DP, but heard RR I think end his sentence with actually saying "hash tag good for the game" instead of "it's good for the game"....Could not listen to another second, is it just me or is that way too much? Wasn't angry, sort of disgusted I guess. That is all.
