Don't Be a Lemming in the Upcoming Election
The Poker Player's Alliance put out a list of 58 candidates
that they support in the upcoming election in November. I
was looking at the list and the candidate they support in my
area is by far one that is not well supported, especially
after his voting record the last two years over major
issues. I don't normally get into politics that much or speak my
mind on it because it is usually a battle of people who
think they cannot be wrong. But in this case, the PPA is
trying to get you to go out and vote on the basis of one
issue.

New Cheating Allegations Arise With UB - Anyone Surprised?
There appears to be yet ANOTHER accusation of cheating
against UltimateBet, now known as UB. As you may know, there
is a legal fight going on between Excapsa Software
(UltimateBet's Original Owners pre name change to UB),
Tokwire Enterprises (acquired UB from Excapsa via a company
called Blast Off), and Blanca Games (the folks that actually
had the balls to buy the Cereus Network. )
Blast Off quit paying Excapsa after the cheating scandal
broke in 2007 and Excapsa thinks that Blast Off is having
its assets transferred out so that they become unable to pay
the remaining portion of the $120 Million due them. The following was discovered in legal documents:
âThe Tokwiro Group and its management recently alleged
that they are the victims of a ânewly discoveredâ
cheating incident dating back to 2004 which caused former
Chief Joe Norton to abandon the internet gaming business and
has given rise to new alleged claims against Excapsa.

PokerStars Wusses Out - Full Tilt to Follow?
For those of you hiding under a rock, PokerStars announced
earlier in the week that they are no longer serving
Washington State residents for real money gaming. This came
from the WA Supreme Court's decision that the law that bans
online gambling was not unconstitutional. They upheld the
law and PokerStars decided that it was time to get out. So many Washington players headed over to Full Tilt to chill
out with Ivey and the boys.
