This is entirely wrong. If the site says you can hit another customer, it doesn't just mean the customer can't sue you for assault or a similar law.
Your post is entirely incorrect. If there really is a law in Florida that says playing online poker while in the state is illegal, then there is some cause for concern for players.
If you want to find out detailed information about that, the Poker Legislation forum is the place to go.
I personally haven't heard of that law, but I did hear Florida passed a law that might impact online poker recently, so start in that thread in the PL forum.
