    Default Poker for $$ on a Gaming Console

    Since all the devices can connect to the Internet, do you guys thing it will be long before you can play for real $$ from the PS3/Xbox/Wii? Is there an interest for this?

    I doubt we will see it before online poker is legal, but it wouldn't surprise me to see this happen in the future.

    To be honest I am surprised they havent done it yet.
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

    Maybe there's an issue with alot of the people owning these being kids and it may not go down too well to have the potential for gambling so easy to access for them. Lets face it, age doesn't exactly stop online poker so imagine a 12 year old on his Xbox?
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.
