I understand what you are saying, poker will certainly experience some bumps due to US pressure but I personally believe that european markets will eventually make up for the disproportion of sharks/fish playing from the US market.

In response to the "link?" question - ePassport is gaining popularity, and there was a thread about YouTeller a while back that sounded promising... If there are poker rooms that are willing to accept US players, I do not see why business persons would not make the same sacrafices to reap the insane $$$ benifets of the US market from the e-wallet side of things.
