    Yahoo have become the 1st of the leading online brands to enter the real money online poker world. Their room is going to be on the Internarional Poker Network. There has been opinion in some quarters that the likes of Google, Yahoo, Microsoft and Ebay might enter the real money online poker world this year. If it's the start of the major brands entering the market then it's gonna be really interesting.

    I would imagine that this will introduce loads of noobs to the game, and will be in general a fantastic time for all.

    the timing of this is fascinating, those Google boys have an outstanding legal team - would be v. suprised if they do not have inside knowledge of the UIGEA repeal jobby
