Good news in the war on poker
Repeal of online gaming ban sought:
Barney Frank, the Democratic chairman of the powerful House financial services committee, is working on legislation to repeal the sweeping ban that was passed in Congress last year against online gaming, he told the Financial Times in an interview.
Mr Frank called the ban, formally known as the Unlawful Enforcement Gambling Act, one of the “stupidest laws” ever passed and said he wanted to “repeal” the law.
Also, former NY Senator and poker player Al D’Amato has joined the Poker Players Alliance as chairman.
