Re: Phil Ivey\'s Story
[ QUOTE ]

"We can't prove this kid is under 21, so c'mon in." Please. Now that poker is so popular and they don't have to take all the business they can get, I wonder if they will actually have to enforce/abide by those laws.

[/ QUOTE ] What the hell do you mean "see what happens?" Aren't you being a bit stereotypical to assume that random black people are going to rough him up if he says something offensive. Because I bet black people in Harlem do that. They beat white people up. All the time.

For shame on all of us for our hasty presumption!
