I don't know a thing about poker, so I'll take it at a face value, but the spam prevention idea is bullshit. It's not new, it wasn't new even twenty years ago,

I don't know a thing about poker, so I'll take it at a face value, but the
spam prevention idea is bullshit. It's not new, it wasn't new even twenty
years ago, from what I remember. It wouldn't fly back then, and nothing
substantial changed since then.
