Hello? Is anyone home?
 
wow... that was weird...


i'm not sure how it happened
but it was supposed to say...


"anyone else addicted yet?"
 
Ok - i'll bite.

What the heck are you guys talking about?
 
Not addicted, but I play regularly. Do you play for real money? If you haven't made that step yet PM me, there are ways to get 'free money'
 
Isn't online gambling illegal??
i'm so out of the loop...
 
No. The government passed the UIGEA (Unlawful Internet Gaming Enforcement Act) by attaching legislation to a port security bill. It pass because anyone who didn't vote for it would have been reemed out as unpatriotic, or not caring about national security in the next election year. This Act was targeted at sports betting and horse racing online, poker was never specified as it is not just a game of chance, but a game of skill as well.

Recently, the UIGEA was repealed. Playing poker online may be illegal in some states (state of washington comes to mind, but I can't remember perfectly) but in the majority of the US it is perfectly legal, and tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of americans play poker online ever day.

I hate all these janky new applications facebook has. Facebook is the new Myspace. So much for College users ONLY. Back in the days I was anxious to get one because I wasn't in college. Now, anyone can make one. WHY FACEBOOK? WHYYY?

I really do not like how you do not need to be a part of a network. They are selling out for money it seems. I even see some high school FRESHMEN on it, let alone some really weird old people. AH!
