Really doesnt make any difference. It has always been legal it just means we can now play on sites that are hosted within Australia i.e. Merge.
I'm just hoping the government doesn't look more into and start charging taxes on people winnings.
I am not sure how well the merge sites play but as a small stakes tourney player they must be better than
pokerstars and I cant wait to get amongst other aussie poker players. (I used to enjoy $100.00 aussie
freerolls on Full Tilt as they gave you a chance to escape the european style of play).
I often get the feeling that pokerstars is gouging aussie players especially when they cant even afford to put on a daily freeroll for us, and as you can see from the chats below a lot of the cards that fall are full on suck outs especially if you are the first player in the hand to go all in.
