		<description><![CDATA[ Here is the breakdown of yesterday&#8217;s vote in the House Financial Services Committee. I&#8217;m curious about those who chose NOT to vote, and libertarian-wise &#8230; Ron Paul&#8217;s declaration of &#8220;present&#8221; &#8212; despite his stated support of HR 2267 a week earlier . Obviously had to be a reason &#8230; and Paul&#8217;s generally not afraid of his voters turning on him, and his seat seems hardly in peril. (I posed the question to him or his people on twitter .

		<description><![CDATA[ Getting caught up and back in the swing of things &#8212; slowly but surely &#8212; so what better way than to listen to the most recent episode of The Poker Beat? The Poker Beat: July 22, 2010 Rookie twitterer @GaryWise1 took his turn in Capt. Huff&#8217;s chair as @BJNemeth and @JessWelman panel-bantered about: The pre-markup hearing in DC with Annie Duke Make-up of the 2010 November Nine The value, if any, of poker agents &#8212; and how the WSOP accommodates them during the main event BJ&#8217;s philosophical non-dilemma over coverage of Matt Affleck&#8217;s emotional bustout * The difference between poker media and poker journalism The Year of Mizrachi and the accidental WTF? of the current WSOP POY scoring system Annette Obrestad&#8217;s B- performance The 3-headed Monster of Team WSOP without @JeffreyPollack WSOP numbers and final table times * great explanation, BJ.

		<description><![CDATA[ by Chris Edge Last year the inaugural All Star week went right down to the wire, with both sides deadlocked at 17-17 going into the final match of the series. The Pros ultimately prevailed to come out on top 18-17 victors. Today the prospect of a repeat scenario seems as distant as ever, with the Challengers on Tuesday racking up a further four victories, surging them into an unprecedented 8-2 lead. In short, the Challengers have been running away with it. On Wednesday the Pros pinned their All-Star hopes on WSOP stalwarts Hevad Khan, Ivan Demidov, Joe Cada, Joe Hachem and Johnny Lodden to get their beleaguered campaign back on track. True to form however, it didn't start at all well for the Pros. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ The tireless work of Rep. Barney Frank and the Poker Players Alliance finally made some progress Wednesday as HR 2267, the Internet Gambling Regulation, Consumer Protection, and Enforcement Act , passed the House Financial Services Committee by a vote of 41-22. The result can be viewed as a small but important victory for the poker community, one that has been defeated over and over again on Capitol Hill over the past few years. The bill, which could ultimately lead to the legality and regulation of online poker in the States, will now be sent to the House of Representatives for more amendments and a majority vote.  Should the bill get the majority vote from the House of Representatives, it would then be passed along to the Senate for another majority vote, before being signed into law by the President. Wednesday&#8217;s win was just the first of many in order to regulate online poker in the United States, but the PPA was very encouraged by the result]]></description>
