DO 'BAD ACTOR' CLAUSES VIOLATE THE U.S. CONSTITUTION?
2014-06-19

The question of 'bad actors' - companies that continued to service the US market after the UIGEA passed in 2006 - has been at the heart of debate around online poker legalisation proposals recently, particularly in the political and tribal maneuvering in California, where two bills are currently before the Legislature (see previous InfoPowa reports).

It's an issue in which Pokerstars and Full Tilt Poker parent the Rational Group have an interest, having paid hundreds of millions in settlements with the US Department of Justice and formed an alliance with the California-based Morongo tribes and leading commercial card rooms in the state.

In the latest development, a distinguished - and independent - Harvard law professor Laurence H. Tribes assessment of the validity of bad actor provisions in the two Californian legislative proposals will give Rational encouragement.

The learned academic says that, if challenged, "bad actor" clauses are unlikely to survive an attack based on federal constitutional grounds.

The Constitutional Law professor names three areas where "bad actor" provisions could be effectively defeated:

* Such clauses qualify as constitutionally prohibited bills of attainder - a class that legislatively determines guilt and inflicts punishment upon an identifiable individual without provision of the protections of a judicial trial, otherwise known as trial by legislature.

* The December 31, 2006 cut-off date used in the California bills is arbitrary and discriminates against Pokerstars in a commercial protectionism sense under the Constitution's Equal Protection Clause.

* The Californian proposals trigger serious constitutional issues in an intellectual property sense, prejudicing Pokerstars' IP in California through restriction and contravening the Takings Clause in the federal constitution.

CEDAR KNOLLS MAN IS THE FIRST BORGATA ONLINE POKER MILLIONAIRE
2014-02-04

Cedar Knolls, New Jersey poker nfl football betting NFL Lines fan Myroslaw "onetime99" Woroch (40) has become the first instant millionaire created in Borgata Casino's online poker promotion "New Jersey's Next Poker Millionaire."
With typical casino industry panache and flair, Worock was crowned following an online tournament on the Borgata Poker site that culminated in a televised championship event played live at Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa.
In the heads up, Woroch held a 600,000 chip advantage over final opponent Steven "ChipsJammed" Edwards, which he put to good use in quickly defeating a capable and determined rival.
Woroch had never won more than $7,000 playing poker before this past weekend, however that all changed when he flopped a straight in the definitive hand against Edwards, effectively making the Cedar Knolls player the Garden State's newest millionaire.
"It was truly a surreal experience when I knew that I had him beat," said Woroch. "When that final card came out my emotions were just running wild."
Woroch won his way into the Next Poker Millionaire Semi-Final through a BorgataPoker.com 1 Point Entry Tournament on December 19th, and then outlasted a field of 2,177 players on January 5th to secure his seat at the final table at Borgata.
He bested four other participants who qualified through BorgataPoker.com, and an additional three from its partner site, PartyPoker.com to win the dream poker package that includes a WPT Alpha 8 super high roller seat, a WPT World Championship seat, two entries into $3,500 WPT events held at Borgata, 52 tournament entries into the online Sunday $50K and $8,000 in live tournament entries at Borgata.
"New Jersey's Next Poker Millionaire signifies a historic event in the evolution of internet gaming," said Borgata director of poker operations Vince Alonge.
Edwards earned a $25,000 runner up check and a Borgata tournament package.
