If you fell asleep during the Q3 Amaya earnings call, you would have missed CFO, Daniel Sebag telling people how PokerStars would ‘block’ their players from accessing the real money site in Australia should Parliament give the thumbs up to proposed amendments to the Interactive Gambling Act of 2011.
