    The article was only published yesterday, but indeed the story is from December (and is very much in the pokar is eeeeeeevil vein).

    Just when you thought Poker was losing that edgy dangerous feel to it.... its back in vogue!

    If poker became like Bingo none of the new lads would start playing. If it keeps getting slammed by the holier-the-thou's we can expect a torrent of players :)

    Thanks conservatives!

    I don't know what you mean about bingo. The last pair of grannies I mugged to cover my poker losses turned out to be a couple of bingo players and, long story short, I woke the next morning down a back alley with a shocking pain in my head, ripped stained clothing and a horrible dirty feeling that wouldn't go away no matter how much I showered.
