Remember 4/15/2011 , the day the American authorities killed online poker for my American mates?

Black Friday, when the DOJ decided that Americans simply couldn't be trusted with their own money, seriously, the country that hosts the WSOP, the home of poker, the home of arguably the best online ( and B&M) players in the world and they are isolated behind their routers, or forced to move outside the US in order to pursue their livelihood

Poker thrives, in Europe, Asia, Australia, but for me it's not the same, the spirit of the game has died.

So when your American authorities turn off the tap on Bitcoin for Americans ( for your own security off course) and BTC rates are posted in zlotties or yen or dong, it'll be time for me to cash in my BTC in exchange for poker chips and hit the felt one more time.

Don't worry about "foreigners" watching you, worry about your own government, particularly in light of what's happened in the last 4 weeks, ( I'm looking at you NSA), no doubt an encrypted copy of YOUR wallet is sitting in an air conditioned storage facility in Utah, waiting for some nice agent to have a go at cracking the encryption, or simply assume you have BTC, so therefore you're engaging in Un American activities.
