Respect for the french.

Please less surrender jokes. We get it. The joke is unfunny. It shows a great deal of ignorance. Stop it.

What is his name? I don't think the name of Pokerstars CEO is public.

Re: pokerstars.FR ON STRIKE !
cliffs:

the PS big boss said that
- PS cannot absorb the players' tax because PS is already losing money in France
- PS will make public its state of finances in the French market to prove that they are losing money
- he personally is very worried by this strike and that PS don't want to lose players
- he was upset that only PS was the target of this action and that other licenced sites were not affected
- he promised to try to reason with ARJEL so that they decrease the tax

Not sure if some of the above statements are honest though

I think these people making french jokes in a thread about something this important in online poker need to be infracted and have thier posts deleted.
