The European Poker Awards seem to be now a joke event.

PokerFuse updated their article on the Texas Poker Gaming Act: "Correction: The article as originally published stated that online poker would be banned under the proposed legislation; however, the bill would not affect the current status of online poker in Texas."

The Texas bill excludes online poker from the provisions of the bill. It doesn't ban it or otherwise change the status of online poker in Texas in any way.

Those revenue records from Macau are amazing. The fact that they are 5.5 times the Las Vegas revenues is shocking.

Unelected officials at the U.S. DOJ meanwhile continue the Online Poker Prohibition, turning the birthplace of poker into a sad poker backwater. The WSOP will probably continue its downward slide since the idiotic U.S. DOJ actions.

There is a reason that a few top players are basically living in Macau in 2012 ... because that is where the action is.
