We got the opportunity to go on KIRO Radio yesterday and talk about online poker with conservative talk show host Dori Monson. he made his disgust over the current law, and the way it came about, known in no uncertain terms. There was also a good story posted on MyNorthwest.com covering that segment, giving us some more local press. Ultimate hypocrisy: Marijuana is legal, online poker a felonyYou can smoke pot legally in Washington state now, but you can't play poker online and KIRO Radio's Dori Monson calls it the ultimate hypocrisy. "It's insane," says Dori. "You know, you've got the state government telling us they have to raise our taxes, they need more of our money.

Get the full story . . .
