Professor: Yes I would, Kent.
As I'm sure just about everyone who reads this blog knows, today has quickly become known as Black Friday amongst the online poker community. The FBI/DOJ have indicted the three major online poker sites (Stars, FTP, Absolute/UB). We really don't know much at this point, but it really does seem as though at the very least US players will be screwed for the time being.
Thank God I'm Canadian. Barring a complete meltdown this will obviously affect game quality, but as long as the sites stay open and player money is accessible it won't be the end of the world. Still, until I know more I really don't feel like grinding today, so I decided to hit and run a +$500 session over 1000 hands. The fact that the sites haven't published official statements at this point is perhaps the most troubling indicator.
*Edit*
Looks like for now it'll be business as usual for the rest of the world on Stars, minus the US regs and US fish. I feel really bad for US based pros who are having their livelihood eliminated for the time being.

Kent Brockman: Professor, without knowing precisely what the danger is, would you say it's time for our viewers to crack each other's heads open and feast on the goo inside?
