Expekt is based in Sweden and advertises on TV there. It's one of the bigger skins on Prima.

I know there have been a few controversies surrounding Scandinavian players and chip dumping with bad money, but I've never heard anything about collusion.

Let the speculation begin...

No idea what legal status of poker is, I'm an American.

Unlike other games I've played online where the scandinavians were really smart, the ones on Prima are generally bad, so I wouldn't have any real fear of collusion. They're just average people who want to gamble.

Wow, your ignorance is actually quite funny...

"smallest corner of the earth" I forgot the world revolves around the USA and everyone should bow down before you.
Most intelligent Americans I've met that live in England are embarassed by people like you.

As for Legal status, well, it's legal...what else do you need to know?
In the tiny insignificant country I live in (what language are you speaking btw) we do not get taxed by the government on poker earnings and I doubt the Swedes/Norwegians/Fins do either.

Bottom line is they love playing Americans because they're far better than you and you alluding to the fact they might be colluding with each other is hilarious - when they bust you up are you going to moan to Prima they were cheating?

I thought true continental snobbery was limited to the actual continent...

Which continent is England in?

Which continent is Sweden in?

It isn't snobbery either, I haven't said we are a better class of people than you guys at all...just that Kane has no idea what he's talking about.
