Krieger has been on top of this bill for a while now. Here’s a rundown of some of his recent posts.
How Rep. Bob Goodlatte Can Become Part of the Solution Instead of the Source of the Problem
It’s time he recognizes that his current legislative efforts will exacerbate the problem. They will not solve it. If he wants to get on the right side of this issue, he should be working on legislation that would make it easier for all of us to sidle up to an online table, and say those magic words: “Deal me in.”
It’s Time to Take Action Against the Goodlatte Bill
But now I’m asking you to take action. And it’s easy. All you have to do is click on this link to communicate with your elected representatives and tell them that you are opposed to this and similar legislation. http://capwiz.com/keep_it_legal/issues/alert/?alertid=8637406.
Goodlatte’s Bill Approved by Subcommittee
Although the bill is a long way from becoming law, and is unlikely to be enacted anytime this year — this year’s session will be short because of upcoming congressional elections — news of the bill’s approval at the subcommittee level was enough to send shares of British gaming companies plummeting. Both PartyGaming and 888 Holdings fell approximately five percent on the London Stock Exchange.

Hi, my name is Bill Rini and this is my poker blog. I've been blogging about poker and the poker industry since around 2003-ish. Like most people I started out playing poker as entertainment in home games whenever we wanted to sit around and smoke cigars, drink beer, and eat pizza, and needed a good excuse. I started playing online shortly after the first online card rooms opened and it wasn't long before I was playing 20, 30, or even 40 hours a week or more. One day I received a phone call about a program manager position at Tiltware which was the company that consulted to Full Tilt Poker on software development and marketing. After Tiltware I spent about 2.5 years working at Party Poker where I was the poker room manager.
