Big Names Joining PPA at the CPAC in Washington

Date: Fri, Feb 19, 2010 Professional Internet

It seems like even with the UIGEA deadline 4 months away, and the mad scramble the last time it was about to take effect to give a six month “research” extension, no one really wants to talk about this.  There are countless news stories talking about how big names are for legalizing online [...]

Date: Wed, Feb 10, 2010 Professional Internet

Kitty Lee recently did an interview with UK poker news, and in that article shares her thoughts on life, love and poker.  This interview isn‘t in depth, and it doesn‘t offer really any great poker insights.  Honestly, it kind of looks like somebody’s pro poker friend mentioned that he once dated Kitty, and taught her [...]
