Not that they're against gambling, you see... just against being deprived of a monopoly in such a perfect fleecing opportunity."

    On-line poker is a criminal wasteland run by thugs. There is NO SUCH THING as a fair game of on-line poker for anyone in the U.S.

    Full Tilt, Poker Stars, etc.. have all been caught red-handed cheating. They rig both the tournaments and the cash games.
