PokerStars, Full Tilt Poker and Absolute Poker shut down by FBI

WSVN, a local South Florida station, aired PokerStars.net Big Game at 1:30 am Mon-Fri for many months. Last night, in it's place, was an infomercial.

I sent an email inquiry and received this response:

....The program Pokerstars.Net has been taken off of our schedule until further notice.

Thank you for your interest.

Sincerely,........


cowards!

Why would you call them cowards? If a show was airing and the owners/sponsers were indicted for money laundering and bank fraud, do you think the station should continue airing it?

Yeah. Why let women vote, why let renters vote, lets keep the vast majority of the black population in slavery. Life was so much better then.


Forkie where in the Constitution does it say women and renters cant vote?

Also point out in the Constitution where it reads the vast majority of black shall be slaves?

New day, new topic same old Forkie lies...

Since you were responding to a post by billryan and not Forkush, you should try to pay attention before engaging mouth.

Even I make mistakes... Sorry Forkie, just going off the picture..

Absolutely!

First, the program was "a paid advertisement" for Poker Stars dot NET. That is the free to play, no cash games site. Of course, they hope that players will eventually make the switch.

Second, an indictment is not a conviction. The old "innocent until proven guilty" thing. Or should that not apply?

The program is/was educational. Good analysis of hands and reasons, interviews into what the "pros" were thinking making a play, etc. I watched because I learn from the show. And I've been playing poker successfully for 40+ years.

And the same station has often aired "infomercials" and advertisements from people and companies that are nothing more than scammers and frauds. Known, if someone bothers to check the BBB, or other sources. Should those "get rich quick" infomercials be allowed?

Seriously? Are you that ignorant of your own Constitution? Are you another Tpartier who is an expert on the Constitution but are unclear about what any specfic part actually says?
I'm all for enforcing the Constitution as it is now written. I think when someone says the US Constitution it refers to the current version and not just up to the Bill of Rights.
I wonder when the dwindling heard of drooling Obama zombies are going to defend this latest scumbag move?
But hey, at least he kept his word and closed Guantanamo "in one years time".
