From a legal perspective, I think this is kind of immaterial no matter how public the games are. I didn't see the agreement with the DoJ saying anything about "play money" being illegal, Full Tilt would obviously not be facilitating funds transfers, and Durrrr/Jungleman could legally exchange the necessary funds in person. As long as finances are kept separate/private, I don't believe there's much to be done on the legal end.
It's obviously a big enough bet that they should have a lawyer look into it... although if either/both of their bankrolls are considerably insolvent at the moment, I don't think we'd see them playing anyway.
