Yeah, that's right. Before you deposit to WPN - and then when you eventually withdraw - you should send your bitcoin thru a new bitcoin address that you create separate from Coinbase.
You can use an online wallet like blockchain.info, or a local wallet on your computer.
So the cycle would be:
Buy bitcoin on Coinbase/Circle -> send to new address -> WPN -> send to new address -> send to Coinbase/Circle to sell
Hopefully WPN will help by using new addresses every time we deposit and sending withdrawals from different addresses. That should make it tough for Coinbase to know that the transactions are even gambling related in the first place.
