No court...except the one Anurag walked into.

Wed, 01/07/2009 - 16:08 — Guest

This argument - that no court has yet ruled on poker violations of the Wire Act - is like someone who doesn't wear seatbelts, "because nothing has ever happened, yet." You didn't hear the Federal judge during Anurag's allocution say, "Hey, stop there Dikshit...online poker doesn't violate the Wire Act. What are you pleading guilty for?" The judge doesn't just sit there as a passive observer as people misapply laws in their court. If there was no underlying crime, the court not only would have rejected the plea, it would have thrown the case out of court. And, again, the DOJ says online poker is a crime. Face it poker players. You are all in the same boat as us dirty sports bettors. Live with that, dude.
