It’s worth repeating: Playing online poker is not illegal.

There’s no law against playing online poker. The infamous UIGEA prevents financial institutions from transfering funds to online gambling sites. That’s all.

I mean, that’s bad enough, to be sure. It affects our beloved game of strategy in a very negative fashion.

And it’s uncalled for. Poker is not gambling.

But let’s keep things in the right places. Playing poker on the internet is not illegal.
