    Exclamation Please Sign the Petition for Regulating Online Poker

    There is a current petition available for anyone to sign that wants to see online poker regulated by the US government. It currently has 7,255 votes and will last until October 22, 2011.

    I signed it and just wanted to bring it to everyone's attention so that it can receive as much attention as possible. The more that sign, the more likely it will be considered I hope!

    The goal was to reach 5,000 signatures before Oct. 22 so it has already received an overwhelming response from poker players. Here is the link to sign the petition: https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petition...poker/KZ2KB7c1

    It only takes like 30 seconds or less to register and sign it. Thanks for your support!

    The industry was lucky to get its petition up before the White House moved the goal posts and changed the minimum number of signatures for consideration from 5 000 to 25 000.
