A felony!!!!

[Terminal Frost]

The Washington State Supreme Court has classified playing poker online in the State of Washington a felony

So online poker ranks with the following in that state:

residential burglary
robbery
auto theft
embezzlement
fraud
identity theft
Felony assault
Unlawful imprisonment
Felony harassment
Felony DUI (5 prior DUIs in the past 10 years)
Felony drug charges

Win or lose they get paid the same and their thrust into everyday life should be a concern for everyone.

Was just reading an article from the Seattle Times,
a Christian-school teacher who played a version of strip poker during a camping trip with students broke no law, teacher Andy Armstrong, 42, had played a game of "Dirty Hearts" with five fifth- and sixth-grade students during a school-sponsored camping trip in April, 2006.

seriously makes you wonder what direction governments are leading
