Message: [QUOTE="DS3, post: 5362963, member: 407846"] Just as follow up, I recently re-watched the poker documentary "[B]Bet Raise or Fold". [/B]It is excellent. It is the story of the growth of on-line poker and features both famous players and the background to Poker Stars, Full Tilt and Party Poker's explosion. It also explains the political shenanigans which led in an underhanded manner to the first law being passed to restrict on-line poker. It then details the obscene scam that Full Tilt Poker was - the owners/partners (such as Lederer and Ferguson) were paying themselves 10 million dollars a month- in 4 years they 'extracted' 443.8 million dollars out of the company. When all was said and done only one individual I believe, CEO Bitar, ever faced charges. It is absorbing and the full movie is available on You Tube. [/QUOTE]
