full tilt poker + the IRS = Ohhhhh snap

[NDN]

I wish the gov't would regulate it... I would play if the companies were big name companies on American soil that were prosecutable in the American court system

but i dont see it happening, since it would pretty much put all the live poker rooms out of business... and hurt alot of local/state municipalities that rely on the tax revenues, (and hault all the kickbacks from the underground rooms, )

they would have to do something like enforce a 200$ a day loss limit online, that would basically steal some of the low limit players from the live rooms/casinos and leave in the big fish

I imagine the entities that operated it would look alot like multi-state lotteries, like powerball megamillions

I'd like to see the comps that would be available to online poker players once Harrah's (now Caesar's) and the likes get into the game once the industry is regulated.
