I don't want to hijack Gabe's thread, but just making these statements

There will be more companies that step up to provide easy transfer options, and poker popularity should remain stable throughout the restof the world untill US policy changes.
is at best meaningless and at worst will lead people into the same complacent mindset we had before the bill. You may not remember, but before the bill passed people would make similar statements about how there was OBV no chance it would pass, and people who suggested otherwise were ridiculed. If we had listened, maybe we wouldn't be here. Convention wisdom =! sure thing.

Back to Gabe -

When (if?) you watch High Stakes Poker, do you think:

"Man, I could kill this game"

"Hey, I play just like XXXXXXX"

"MATASOW HU FOR BRS!!!"

"Meh, online is juicier"

"Why don't they show 12 tables at once?
