There are reasons why certain games and sports are not played for money. For example if we looked at Tennis then even though that sport is played for money then that money is placed into the game from outside sources and so if the world ranked number one player plays someone ranked at one hundred then the lesser ranked player is not financially worse off for the defeat. However the lesser ranked player would never dream of putting up say a million dollars of his own money to play the best player in the world in a private tennis match. The reason is simple and obvious and is because the skill difference is too visible. In fact the player ranked second in the world wouldn’t likely put up the money either under normal circumstances. <

I arrived in LA yesterday evening, haven’t done much other than sleep since I arrived. Might head down and get tackling.
I sent $120k over with the intention of building a $200k tank for Vegas this summer. Given how I ran here last year, I’d probably take $150k to Vegas now. With loads of cash games and tournaments on there, it should be plenty of fun.
Despite not doing very good in the European Deepstack, I had quite a good weekend. I was housed over housed to get crippled and then shoved 33 into 1010. I also got a good sweat out of one of my horses. Ross finished 13th and was quite unlucky not got a lot deeper.
I got the sweep on the Italy v England game, which bagged me about $45k.

Washington DC moved a step closer on Thursday to becoming the first jurisdiction in the US to offer regulated online gambling. The DC Lottery told a committee that they could have the online casino up and running within a month, if they received the approval of the city council. That approval may not come as fast as the lottery would like. Council-member Jack Evans decided not to give the blessing, instead buying time to decide whether or not the committee will consider a repeal bill that was introduced last year. Two of the twelve members of the council are against the online casino. The lottery also is aware of the possible public outrage over the casino.

Newcomers to online gaming may be able to take advantage of the rare no deposit bonus when they register. Not many online casinos offer this excellent incentive. For those looking for free instant play casinos no deposit bonuses should be a major encouragement.
With a no deposit bonus, the player does not make any upfront deposit to receive the cash bonus. This is a better offer than the more common alternative, a promise to provide an amount of bonus money based on the size of the players deposit.
An online casino will generally attach rules to the no deposit bonus. Players should understand the casinos regulations before signing up for membership.
