I found a neat article describing how bitcoins are perfect for poker. What do you guys think?

Great article. I love the helium analogy.

Ha, It's a unique analogy, I learned something new.  But it fails as an explanation by being as complex if not more than the original subject.

Before getting back into reclaimed lumber, I used to play full time on Poker Stars for a living. I look forward to the day I get to do that again. I think a site that only accepts Bitcoin could make that happen. Yes, I've seen betco.in, but...(no comment).

Phinnaeus, you may want to check out btcontilt, the software is a bit smoother than betcoin

I have a friend in Biloxi that plays on Briggs Softworks poker sites (though probably not btcontilt.com). Him and his team of bots do quite well on them. Thank you kindly for the info, though, on btcontilt.com, but I'll pass for now.
