Online gaming for money is still illegal in most states, even if it is poorly or not enforced.
Do you have a reference for this? From my limited research, I came to the conclusion that this was still a big questionmark.

I recently read about poker bots (programatically perfect software players), what's your experience (if any) with that? Last I read it was described as the greatest threat to online poker gaming (The Economist a few months back, I believe).
This is interesting- I'd be very interested in reading more about that- I'd think it would be very difficult to program a computer to handle the complexities of the game. Like Jimmy said erlier, there are not a fixed number of scenerios. It isn't enough (especially in NL) to be able to know your odds and bet to get a winning hand. You also have to be able to extract the most money from your opponents when you have a winning hand. Or, conversely, bluff them out of their money when you don't have the best hand.
