AND so the poker world now finds itself in a situation many liken to Prohibition.
The only way this situation is similar to prohibition is if under prohibition the only alcohol made illegal was whiskey.
I appreciate the argument that poker is a game of skill rather than luck (and believe this), but I'd rather see people asking why so many other forms of gambling are ok (i.e. B&M Casinos, Bingo, race tracks, sports bets, lotteries, etc) but somehow the act of wagering over the internet makes it different and wrong.
