People is on the beach enjoying the sun, only nerds are there playing Roll Eyes

JK.
No seriously, people loves the sun.

Yeah that is true, online poker always takes a dip in the summer.

Even for myself, I want to play... but during the day when it's so nice out it's tough to stay inside on a computer. I don't usually start playing until later as it gets dark.

There are people playing ring games though. Sometimes it ebbs and flows... I've gone from nobody playing to a few full tables in 10 minutes, and then a few people leave and it slows down for awhile.

It usually only takes 2 or 3 players willing to play to get multiple tables going. Once people start joining and requesting action it brings in more players off the sidelines.

I've tried to check back in to swcpoker. I find only a windows client available that I have to run as administrator.

I've played a lot there in the past. But I have no first hand knowledge about what is really going on there. This is not an accusation but only how I think:

The last news I had about Micon he was facing prosecution. While I think this is wrong in every way, it still triggers a honeytrap alert in my mind.

I hope my fears are wrong. And I'm really writing this in hopes that someone will prove they are. I want to play!

I'm so sad that there is probably no way to prove this. But a safer client might help me assume the risk.

Micon has already made a deal, he is no longer facing prosecution.

As far as honeypot, why would it be given the fact that whenever the USA goes after any gambling site they never go after the players?

What nioc said.

No players of poker sites have been targeted before. When the DOJ stopped Pokerstars and Full Tilt in 2011 they not only didn't go after the players, they helped the players get paid.

And there would be no reason to target players because playing online poker is not illegal.
