We know about black Friday, and how many players have moved to play the game they love or have moved over to sites that are shady or unregulated. This post is dealing with a different side of the law and poker though.
When a site like partypoker, who bans bots.. announces that they ban dozens of bot accounts per month and then the next month they pop up and ban more bots. How come I never hear about people cheating and getting caught ?
Inb4 they use 8000 proxies
Do these sites even deal with law enforcement ? is it not their duty ? or do they just ban accounts that get flagged or whatever ?
A separate issue, when a site like 888 tells me to make a new account because the system will just delete my old one and then they ban me for multi accounting and deny the conversation ever took place. Where can we turn ? the gaming commission ?
Another separate issue... If pokerstars bans you for verbally abusing staff members, even though PokerStars chat moderators verbally abuse you (while playing poker i might add) Where do we turn ? the gaming commission ?

See to me it looks like these poker sites operate and are allowed to do anything without any repercussions(it actually says in their TOS that they can deny access to an account for any reason).
