Hey guys, im looking for a buddy or two to live with in Easternish Europe (maybe other places if it makes sense) for the next few months or so. I plan on being very social (talking to lots of women etc), focusing on personal development, and doing cool ****. We can also talk poker etc

Incase anyone misses this line from the DOJ statement, this is what the average player pays in rake when he deposits x amount in a poker website

Of the billions of dollars in payment transactions that the Poker Companies deceived U.S. banks into processing, approximately one-third or more of the funds went directly to the Poker Companies as revenue through the “rake” charged to players on almost every poker hand played online.

Is it bad etiquette to go to a restaurant say like Mastros or something like that just for dessert?

No but it's pretty womanly.

Did anyone actually pay taxes on the money that FTP had frozen? Seems pretty ridiculous considering we didn't know if we were ever going to get it.

Lucky for me, I'm a procrastinator and am just finishing 2011 taxes now, so I'm going to include my locked up FTP as income. What I'm worried about is that the DOJ will directly tax it and then I will be paying double taxes. What did everyone do, plan to do?

I claimed the income when I earned it and then wrote off my account balance as a loss last year. I'm guessing I will now be amending my 2011 return, but I let someone else take care of it for me and I'll do whatever they tell me I should.

Also I don't think DOJ has anything to do with taxes.

The DOJ isn't the IRS, they're not going to withhold taxes. You were supposed to pay taxes on your 2011 FTP profit because of some IRS mumbo-jumbo. Basically, you're not allowed to write the $$ off as a loss unless there is a 0% chance you're getting it back. You are supposed to pay taxes and then write it off in a future year if you get, you know, 0-99% back. That sucks considering we can have losing years or if you had giant 2011 profit it could exceed later profit, etc.

So presumably next year we'll all be writing off 90% of our UB balances as a loss ^_^

Does anyone have J.C. Alvarado's contact information? He's not been on 2p2 since April so a PM is not going to do it.

Thanks.
