CardPlayer Europe this month is reporting that the EPT TV shows may be forced off the air here because PokerStars servers are based in a non-approved location as far as the new advertising regulations here are concerned - or they may have to move their servers!
Yet another example of government clowns poking their noses into issues that they don't need to get involved in and causing havoc.
I assume that this is because they are regulated by Kawanake - however given the Absolute scandal I'm not sure that anyone could make a case for KGC regulated sites to advertise in the UK. (Although Full Tilt seem to manage to do it via the somewhat obvious loophole of advertising play money games.)
