I’m pretty torn here. On one hand I hate their games and their (old) business model. But, getting into online gambling changes things.
I know we’ve had this discussion before, but I couldn’t find the thread. Basically, I strongly believe online poker will be back in the US in the near future (1-2 years). As we saw with Full Tilt and Poker Stars there’s a ton of money to be made…a little bit less when the business has to be run legitimately, but still a huge market.
There’s substantial legislative risk, but I’m okay with that. My problem is I hate Zynga. By getting the licensing out of the way they clear a major barrier to entry, they have the online infrastructure to do it…Really not sure what I want to do here.
Purely a speculative play on legal online poker. Do I enter into a position in a company I loathe to gain access to an industry I love? Perhaps a small position…
