The war on poker
A look at how a US attorney in Manhattan is turning misdemeanor crimes into felonies. Those involved in this online poker deal are looking at decades in prison. Puritanical busybodies.

Just another example of how NYC wants to rule the entire nation. Gun laws, poker laws, what is next?

Hey, as long as he goes after the NY lottery next, I’m OK with it.

Several of the smaller sites are still up, but who knows when they could be shutdown. I don’t think I’m going to take any chances considering I still can’t get money off Fulltilt ðŸ™

So are they going to shut down New York’s Off Track Betting places? This is just a way to get any money that Citizens haven’t already turned over to the State. After all, one should be buying GM, Chrysler and G.E. stock, along with worthless Gooberment Bonds, correct?

It’s a sure bet (pun intended) that this guy lost too much poker now he’s pouting with our tax dollars.
