When I think about the number of these senators that no doubt play poker personally I
a) hate them all for hypocrites
b) Really wanna get in that game. Always wanted my own predator drone.
This is the party of “small government” “freedom” and “state’s rights” here folks.
What douchespigots.
I’ll take “Things that wouldn’t happen in an online game for 1000, Alex”
God forbid you play online poker safely in your home.
This is actually happening: I’m linking the Daily Caller.
Apparently even the right wing is starting to clue in to the fact that Sheldon Adelson is a crazy old liche.
Let’s be real for a second:
Most of us remember the online poker boom.
It was NOT bad for cardrooms. It was NOT bad for casinos.
The only thing harmed by the poker boom, hypothetically, was the american tax base – if we could have kept all those transactions domestic and taxed, we could have bought pet ligers for everyone in the state of Montana.
But let’s accept, for the nonce, as it were, harrumph, that Adelson’s paranoid old man visions are true:
The right better not help him.
If you say you’re for small government, for states rights, and for individual liberty, you better get out of bed with this guy and on the legal poker clue train as soon as you can get to the ticket booth.
For my money, you cannot beat the Maryland Parkway In and Out when feeding the beast in Vegas.

onlinepoker.net has an interesting roundup of tweets from a busy weekend in the poker world.
particularly loved Todd Brunson’s:
“The subjects that come up at poker table: tonight: terrorist, beastiality, cannibalism…. I hope homeland isn’t tuning in tonight.. Well I was winning all night so johnny chan called for a brand new set up and I lost every hand. But I retaliated. 2 vodkas and I got even.”
