    Attention US Poker Players

    The Poker Players Alliance put up an online petition for poker players to sign to let the government know how we feel about online poker.

    The US is taking an increasingly hard line with online poker and legislative interest in the subject is rising. Please take 30 seconds of your time to sign the petition and hopefully we can get the UIGEA overturned.

    Here's the link: http://pokerpetition.com

    You have no idea. I don't know if you guys where playing before the UIGEA passed, but games where sooooo soft. You didn't even have to know how to play to make a killing. Now all the grinders still play but the fish are gone.

    If the UIGEA gets overturned it will be like feeding time at the shark tank at SeaWorld.

    Just an FYI: The UIGEA is finally being challenged in court. There's a hearing on July 7th. Maybe the courts can strike down the act before congress gets a chance to.

    I signed it, Fulltilt is also running $3.5k freerolls listed for July 4, 11, 18, 25, all at 14.30 ET.

    Just imagine, being able to deposit and withdraw without any hassles... not having to worry about your stuff getting denied... getting your funds siezed by the government... and the massive amount of fish. Definitely worth paying a small tax for.
