I like the spirit of the French, especially when they feel that an injustice has been done. These guys have no problems shutting down their entire transportation system, for example, just to have their rights heard. This fighting spirit was carried over to the gambling world recently when French poker players learned that they will now by charged extra at their favorite online poker sites because the French government is charging a 2% tax on all rakes. What did these guys do? They simply occupied all the tables at these poker sites and refused to play – essentially shutting down sites such as Poker Stars in France! Kudos to the French poker players for their ingenuity and fair play!
I have to reiterate that I love the French, but I couldn’t resist a few jokes at their expense – no offence, guys!
