I know of two people good friends of mine that this is costing them about $1,000,000 each...another who this is costing him approximately $8,000,000...I know people who had stock options working with Party in Gibraltar...busto.

I have a number of friends who write columns for poker mags, and authored a few books. The mags will lose a huge % of their advertising revenue, and a few friends books are now on hold and probably will now not be published.

I know a woman with cancer who's only hobby while going through chemo is online poker.

I was in line for a prestigious job that would begin later this month. It is still going forward, but with sponsorship concerns, I honestly don't know where that stands.

I have friends here in Vegas who play poker for a living, who are now just realising the trickle down effect this could have on their livelihood.

It can get ugly.
