What's the word on letting the big online sites loose?

I am still playing on IGN btw. Just scared to death to put any money into it, and worrying if I'll ever get it back. I can't trust poker in the US.

That's one reason, and the other is not having the money. Although I would likely still put some money in and try to build from nothing.

As an aside, it will be interesting to see how Global Poker Network pans out. They have performed an end around on UIGEA. I am currently testing the waters.

Apologies for the hijack. Poker rarely gets discussed on these forums.

I dunno, seems pretty cool. He's winning, talking to hot babes, a celebrity on TV.

Difficult to understand how they would long term after courts rule poker isn't a "game of skill" without appeal. UIGEA

Don't make mistake of underestimating him. He knows what he's doing.

Anyone have a link to that guy in Florida that was always a loser but went on a huge win streak one night against a couple guys in a house game, but then they wouldn't pay up?

Yeah Jamar knows what he's doing at poker. Especially Omaha. He's also really involved in street pharmaceutical distribution from what I hear. (Allegedly)

Marc Klang? Dudes still a degenerate. I think he settled for a portion of it.

Last I saw he got evicted from his place.

When my gf and I go to LaBerg, I play $20 in nickle slots and watch her play. I hate gambling but I love to watch people play real shite like craps and poker. Is this guy or a group around BR and can you watch them?

You either double up or go bust when you play with Jamar. He crams the pot and puts pressure on you better than anyone in that poker room.

He got banned for awhile for stealing a tip back from a dealer he didn't like. Supposedly.
