There is an online poker petition that you can sign and be heard. Linda Johnson is on her way to Washington for National Poker Week! This will be July 19th to the 25th. She will be presenting the petition to President Obama.
She spoke as we all have about contacting our Congressmen and letting them know how we feel bout playing in our own homes and with out own money. We also want them to know about the elderly and homebound, that only can play in their homes.
We need to all sign this petition and get all our friends to do the same to get as many as we can to sign this petition and to get the UIGEA thrown out.
Go here to sign the Online Poker Petition!

The PPA is trying to get online poker taken out of the UIGEA Bill and have it legalized. So they have been gathering signatures in a petition up and get as many names as possible on it.
Since poker has been proven as a game of skill, they say it should be exempt. This petition has really got people in Vegas talking. A lot of the poker tournaments are held in Las Vegas.
I say if they want this done then get behind and the ones that have signed the petition behind Barney Frank. He is the one doing more for online gambling, including poker than anyone else. Get these 200,000 people to back Frank and we will get things done.
To see the Petition and read the story go here.
