Mammux,

Some of the craziest, most aggressive players I have ever seen are from Bergen.

I have also played with good players from Bergen.

Percentage wise, if someone is from Bergen rather than say, london, I will assume he is more aggressive.

Locals who get the Trib will notice Nate is way overdue for a monitor upgrade. Dude, WTH? I have a guy with 20.3" Dell LCD refurbs below manufacturer's cost. You don't have to live like that.

Unless this is designed to throw off other online players, much like live chip (mis)handling...

LOL, when I saw the picture, I was saying to myself: that can't be Nate from 2+2, cuz he's got an ancient monitor!

P.S. - How much are those monitors? I'm very interested in buying one (or two).

Cool to see the article. Just curious if the reporter asked about the whole illegality (of net gambling in IL) thing and just didn't include it in the article, or didn't ask about it altogether. I know it's not a big deal as illegal acts go, but reporters are paid to address (and blow out of proportion) those kinds of things.
