That's a cool write up. Yeah, Im in the US so online all I can grind is Merge, Bovada, ACR etc. I just started putting a little volume in on SWC, but its still a little 'foreign' to me. I really wish Pokerstars and Tilt can come back to the US with the bitcoin, that would be huge..

the BTC is very nice for the poker world, i think theres still alot of work to do to come up with a decent software, i didnt see any one come close to FTP or stars but if it happens the guy who operate this room is gonna be rich, ofc the BTCs needs to be a bit more popular, but since the gouvernaments started to regulate online poker alot, i would see a bright future for anyonewho comes with a super nice poker software to play on. :)

I appreciate how it's anonymous and poker sites don't really care if you use BTC

Thanks for destroying my hope of raking in the money on those poker sites by publicly showing it to the other sharks.
