The dollar value of all this is very vague but appears to be equal to no more than a years salary of a high stakes cash game player. Doesn't seem like much of a penalty to me
Does anyone know the likelyhood of online poker regulation on a federal level? I ask this because my state is not in favor of it but of course I want them to be.
Barry makes some good points but I cant imagine they would just hand it over. I would think there would be paperwork presented indicating where the money would go. Anyhow, good interview Brett and Elaine! We always appreciate hearing these given we want to know when the heck we will get our money back!
Poker Stars looks like a hero compared to FT. I would really like to return to FT due to their software but suspect I will migrate over to pokerstars. PP's software was garbage
