The Texas Hold No limit is a great game that has great notoriety since 2003. Thanks to a guy named Chris Moneymaker (no joke!) Who won the World Series of Poker, the game has sky rocketed to new heights. By the way, the cost to enter a World Series event is $ 10,000 dollars. It costs Moneymaker $ 25.00 dollars – he entered a satellite poker on the poker website and won a 10,000 dollar seat. Now, that’s a great story. There were approximately 800 people in World Series of Poker in 2003.

The total for people entered in 2006 was over 8000 people, now that’s some jump in attendance. Greg Raymer, 2005 and Allan Gold in 2006, all won their seats from Poker web sites. As a matter of fact, half the people entered in the 2006 World Series of Poker came from the satellite tournaments won on line – that ‘s over 4000 people 온라인카지노.

Unfortunately, I’m expecting a change in attendance in 07 to the World Series event, and that’s because President Bush signed the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 which prohibits people from the U.S. to gamble online, if you want to use this gambling site.

Listen, I’m sure people will come up with ingenious ways to be able to play poker online and win all the world series events. By the way, you can still play poker online, you just can’t play for money. Listen – tax it, regulate it, police it – but don’t ban it! People are doing far more things in this world than playing poker.
