It's clearly a class C felony. Possession of child pornography is also a class C felony.
The appeal didn't go over as well as people had hoped earlier this year:

there is still tonssss of ambiguities that do not allow it to be enforced or even applicable to the individual player. the WA gambling commission has openly stated that the law will not be enforced. when dino rossi becomes govt next year the bill will likely be overturned over the next few years.
i nor any of the many poker players in WA have been pursued in any way over this issue, nor will we because the govt would be a laughingstock once the media found out.
it's like driving one mile over the speed limit; not only will a cop not stop you, but if one does, if you get a good attorney a judge will throw your case out because there are simply enough ambiguities.
