ABC-Nightline-PokerIs ABC getting set to do a hitjob on online poker?

So will this be another ‘lock up your children’ fearmongering fable? Our cynical side thinks we know how this story will unfold, but tune in tonight to find out. Read more.

    I think its great that the teens are showing up the old fogeys who play poker and think that just because they are old they know everything.

    What a horribly destructive article. The vast majority of people lose when gambling, and the people described in this article are likely gambling addicts who will ultimately suffer severe economic, relational, and other problems. Nightline should be sued for the way they are kissing the butts of the gambling industry.
