Poker will be more taxable in the future here in the United States. Within the next two or three years I'm thinking we'll see Harrahs.com, wynn.com, etc as poker rooms.
It wasn't a matter of "ohh poker is bad we shouldn't allow it." Instead the government realized "holy shit these people are sending money through rake to places not in the United States, we need to stop it so we can figure out how to keep that money in-house in the future."
