Wrote up a short piece on the issue: http://bit.ly/hWHUoY

Mostly normative for now.  Will probably get into what is actually happening in detail tomorrow.

Eh, I don't know. That Preet Bharara is a petty tyrant wannabe.

So there are about a million Americans who want to play poker right now and can't. It would be a good time to open a nice Bitcoin poker room.

If some developer with experience making things happen needs a little capital, let me know.

There already is one, though I can't guarantee it's "nice" or even "active." It's at betco.in.

Well whaddya know? Here's why the FBI shut down the top poker sites:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post_now/post/internet-gambling-is-coming-to-dc/2011/04/13/AF62F4UD_blog.html

The District [of Columbia] is becoming the first U.S. jurisdiction to allow Internet gambling, trying to raise millions of dollars from the habits of online poker buffs and acting ahead of traditional gambling meccas like New Jersey and Nevada.
