A spokesman for the minister told silicon.com: “People have been breaking the law and it’s our job to uphold the law. Some ads offer free entry to poker competitions which is against the rules. This is about the content and what you are and are not allowed to publish.”

Could this lead to a new crackdown on freerolls? A chilling thought.

I mean, who cares about anti-terror legislation, ID cards, a national curriculum for babies, or schools being handed over to religious groups and evangelical used car salesmen? This is important!! Personally, I’ll be fighting for my right to be able to battle through 9999 other freeloaders for ten hours in the hope of winning $4.68 for reaching the final table.
