Thanks for posting Andy. I saw that this morning and was sick about it. The last I heard there are 94 Cardrooms and 27 Indian Casino's in Washington. So what is it that our 'honorable' Governor D - Christine Gregoire is saying? To me it seems that is Ok for me to play, just so long as I do it at one of the joints where she has her paws in the coffer.

I am ashamed of my state and it's "Leadership".
I'm tired of the government trying to protect us from ourselves.

As soon as I get home I will be joining the PPA and letting all of my friends know about it too. For now I have stopped playing online, just to see how this pans out but I don't see myself sitting out the next TCBRTTWSOP season.

In Washington State an online poker player is a Class 'C' Felon. Other Class 'C' felons in my state include: Child Pornograhers, Drug Dealers (not users mind you), Repeat Drunk Drivers and others. Someone please tell me this is some sort of joke!?!

Take Care,
Tom H.
