Hmmmm......did they really think that a multi-level marketing pyramid scheme would work for online poker?

Very interesting - I'm assuming we will be seeing a lot of sites closing down in the next year.

I would love to purchase this domain though....

I honestly didn't know if it would fly?
Had a feeling it would be success or failure though, no in between.

They have WSOP.com too don't they?

I'd take that dotcom over their database
