Admin: RCW 9.46.220 deals with professional gambling, the section that makes internet poker a felony is RCW 9.46.240. The entire section cannot be repealed, but it should be amended. A regulatory framework requires amending several sections of 9.46, and some new Dec 30, 2013 12:19:08 GMT -8 *

Admin: The legislature is now in session. Call, write, or e-mail your Senator and Representative and ask them to take up the issue, regulation is better than prohibition; prohibition turns a blind eye to the very things it was intended to address Jan 14, 2014 9:57:31 GMT -8
