I say yes! It is your money and if you want you should use it however you want.

Many say it is a scam but to be honest most of it is people who do not know how to play IMO because I was never scammed

Thoughts?

Yes. Some oversight might be necessary to ensure honest practices, though on the other hand the decision to engage in this sort of thing is yours to make.

This is where national republicans and I very much seperate: not sure why on this particular monetary issue they take such a moralistic tone. If a person wants to blow their money, they should be allowed to do so.

Yes, and we should put a known gaming commission (like Nevada's) in charge of oversight.

Glad to see across the political board this is something we can agree on. We need some oversight however if it is like Nevada it should be fine.

Also I am a little bias since poker is like my thing lol

It violates the rights of states to regulate and ban gambling. It makes every computer terminal a potential outlet of a real or virtual casino.

The "small government" conservatives said no, while the "big government" liberals said yes.
