And, to keep the thread on track, I genuinely have absolutely no sympathy for those who have lost their livelihoods as a result of the ban.

If you've "lost your livelihood" because of the ban, you're frankly terrible at life.

The one thing I've found incredible about American online poker players over the last few years is their almost delusional denial of the clearly stated law.
