    The truth needs to be told .....If it airs I'm just hoping it helps instead of giving the industry a (another) big black eye .

    expect the black eye.
    Almost Here! How would you like to be able to get not just one sign up from your player, or even a couple, but every single casino they join from here on? I've a plan that can make that happen and it will likely also tell you every time the player is active within the casino.

    Black eye or not. The poker playing public needs to be informed. I'm very happy that the main stream media is finally taking an interest in this.

    Oh I don't disagree on that point. I've written several articles about the AP/UB situation.

    60 minutes is probably less biased than others so maybe they'll focus on the fact this was found out and by who? rather than on beating up online gambling in general.

    I'm hoping they hit on the subject of regulation myself. Maybe even the UIGEA and the fight against it will come up. I'm still amazed at the amount of folk that I meet that have never heard anything about it , or even know what it is .
