What are your plans for the future (Next 2 years etc)
Do you see yourself fitting poker into that future?
What do you see as the future of poker in regards to popularity, UIGEA etc etc.

Next 2 years I will be playing poker as far as I know. My gf is going to be in school during that time and hopefully at the end of that we will be able to buy a condo/house.

No idea about the future really other than there will always be newcomers to the game and eventually solid winners will either move up or move out so games should be okay I guess around small-midstakes though anything could happen I suppose. I live in Canada so I'm pretty ignorant with regards to the UIGEA in that I don't understand it enough to make any future predictions. My guess though is (so it seems) poker works alot like the stock market. There will be ups and downs, and perhaps even depressions (now? future?). But the games will always be changing one way or another and those who stay on top of whats changing will come out ahead (I guess). Fish not being able to deposit would suck ass though so anything to make it easier for them is certainly good for the poker economy. (alot of speculation in this repsonse I think..)
