Watch an expert smack down the arguments that government can stop people from playing online poker. Watch his opponent stumble like a deer in headlights and babble on -- only to cave and accept his defeat by the end of what surely will be his first and last TV appearance. (God I love watching old people talk about the internet.)

They are discussing one of many controversial bills designed to "control" the internet that has passed favorably out of a congressional subcommittee and may come up for a vote next week. This particular bill would attempt to ban certain types of online gaming -- including online poker while at the same time making online bets placed on horse races legal. It is unclear if this is even possible or what the bill would ultimately mean for the internet.

  • Online poker was banned. Fuck America, land of the free my ass. And to all those soldiers who claim to fight for freedom what the FUCK are you doing in the middle east when our greatest threat to freedom is a bunch of self important old guys in suits who have the audacity to call themselves public servants.

  • @airharm lol why do you live here then LOLLLLL

  • Here is the answer to Black Friday but only for the most serious of online poker players. youtube (dot) com/watch?v=CFw9w1UAjd0

  • Compulsive gambling - BS. definition of compulsive gamblers is 'stupid people'. If some old lady starts playing poker for the first time ever and plays for stakes that are way over her head, that's her own damn fault for being greedy and stupid. Maybe if people like this weren't so lonely they'd have people to talk to about their gambling problems who could stop them. It's not like the CIA/FBI doesn't already know everything we do online. cooperate with Gambler's Anonymous to nab these rtards.

  • fuck congress!

  • @gopats2338 It was Bush that got the law passed, but your right.

  • These people fucking kill me. I'll give you a perfect example of how dumb this shit is. Your allowed to play poker, right? If you want to give someone a million dollars that's perfectly legal right? But it's illegal to give someone a million dollars for having a better poker hand...WTF!!!

  • @FuckThatShitBitch100 Keep thinking those foreign criminals didn't screw Americans......muppet

  • @socref79 yah and either is poker

  • @FuckThatShitBitch100 Online trading isn't rigged against Americans
