So there’s a new poker club in town. Very private. Very swanky. I had the opportunity to play a few..um, hundred hands this weekend in a private, secure club.

Three world reknown poker players – Chris “Jesus” Ferguson, Greg Raymer, and Howard Lederer came to Washington, DC on April 4-5 to lobby Congress to reject a bill by Congressman Bob Goodlatte which seeks to ban online gaming – with the notable exceptions of horseracing and lotteries. They’ve met with members of the media, Capitol Hill staff, and other influencers. I was lucky enough to tag along. Did I mention I have the coolest job ever?
