    Watching it right now. It gets pretty darn fascinating about 15 minutes in. I’m hooked on this reality show.

    The justice talking at 11:25 makes me think I’m watching a late episode of the Andy Griffith Show.

    It looks like if the Commonwealth of Kentucky won, Full Tilt Poker’s domain can’t be seized, according to this article on Pokernews:

    Clonie info in that link also:

    In addition to winning its case against Kentucky, Full Tilt Poker provider Tiltware, LLC also scored a victory against former Full Tilt Poker pro Clonie Gowen, who had previously sued the defendants for violating an oral agreement. Gowen asked for $40 million in damages but was denied by the courts. Having failed to prove her case against Tiltware and its co-defendents, including Full Tilt Poker pro Howard Lederer, Gowen filed to amend her complaint but was once again denied by U.S. District Judge Robert C. Jones. Although the judge ruled in favor of the defendants by denying Gowen’s attempt to have the case reconsidered, he did offer her the chance to be heard one last time. She has until October 29, 2009, to have the case heard a third and final time.
