Anyone know what the max EURO amount they allow you to withdraw in one transfer? Or perhaps there is an amount its smart to be below because smaller transfers are probably sent faster?
Appreciate if someone could help me out here.

Love how in the "how it works" text it starts with: "Poker by Proxy works by taking your money" 
And just to point out the obvious, if these players really were "the best in the world" why would they sell a large percentage of their action, doesn't exactly make much sense.

I'm having lunch with someone who works high up in Kaspersky
We will obviously discuss Bitcoin among other things, but I need some advice.
Thus far I've thought of:
-It would be natural to accept Bitcoins for a company that offers computer security and they could be first?
-There is probably a future market for some inbuilt Bitcoin security possibilities within antivirus software's, on both PC and mobile.
-Antivirus companies have a self interest in Bitcoin growing, because it would make computer security even more important.
-Adopting it could earn them a lot of support and PR
Anyone else have something that would be worth to bring up?

The most important thing moving forward is without a doubt theft prevention, although theft itself is not that common, the "fear of theft" is almost an epidemic.
Its just a scary thing to have a large amount of coins on a computer, even though its offline and all precautions have been taken, especially for novice/new users this is a turnoff. Many new users wants to join not as an active user but just to store wealth/invest.
So what if we did this:
The bitcoin devs create a function that enables users to create a "holding wallet". This wallet permanently make it so that the wallet can just send a transaction to a set of addresses which users enters upon wallet creation.
Then the day the user wants to use some coins, he initiates a transfer to one of the saved wallets and he is free to spend the coins.
It think this would open many opportunities and improve safety a lot and perhaps make third-party sites like blockchain.info a safe "middle man" alternative. The coins would not be there until the owner of the coins decides to spend them and the attacker would have to have both the original "Holding wallet" and one of the destination wallets/accounts.
What you guys think? Would love to hear other ideas, everyone should put some thought into this

This is a decent idea where you have a white list of addresses. Now how do you update/create that list? This does just push the problem to needing to compromise two wallets to get to your address.
I have no idea if this is feasible or not, however I wish there where more discussion on this topic as the current way limits the growth substantially, although one could argue that is a good thing for now.
you're correct, but what that means is that the user gets a type of TFA in a way, since the attacker would need access to both wallets.
If this was possible, what I would do is to set up this wallet on another computer that whitlists 3 addresses (on Blockchain.info, Gox and Bitstamp) and enable TFA on those. I just don't see any way for an attacker to get hold of the coins then and for a novice/new person this will feel safe and be easy to set up.

First of all, you've actually received a product from bfl?
Regarding the power adapt. I'm sure you can just swap with something store bought. If not probably tons of electro-type shops that can help you out with something custom.
