Not at all. Did you guys even read Pokerstars rules? Even once? Rules clearly state playing from U.S. is subject to FUNDS CONFISCATION. What part of that is unclear? It doesn't say a part of balance or winnings or everything except what was going to be donated to hungry children in Africa, or everything except Grandma's inheritance or anything else. It's crystal clear that the whole balance is subject to confiscation.
Secondly, it's pretty obvious that Mr. Schindler is a liar and a manipulator. For all we know the deposit of "EPT winnings" is part of his BS sob story.
Thirdly, I'm for online (and offline) poker legalization worldwide as much as anyone else. But if you break the current rules/laws and get caught, lie and whine about it - you don't get my sympathy. ZERO.
