Dog Gone It! The world renowned B.S. and Associates have released their latest online gambling study in light of the online poker controversy in the US. The study, which has been completed in the past two days, reveals that without online poker access, domestic abuse has risen.

The US has frozen millions of dollars in online poker winnings in the past week. That apparently has caused some players to go off the deep end. At least that is what the B.S. study indicates.

B.S. associate, Grady Lens, has studied the behavior of fifty players whose winnings have been frozen this week. Of the fifty players, there has been twenty-seven acts of domestic violence in that same time period.

The study could not conclude from five of the players that the domestic abuse was from the lack of online poker access. The report indicated that these five players were already deu**e bags, and were hitting their family on a regular basis.

The other twenty-two, however, were first time domestic violence offenders, according to their spouses. Many of these spouses claim that they have been hit for the first time this week. Lens then concluded that the strikes were a direct relation to not be able to play online poker.

"When you take fifty people who were enjoying playing poker online and you make them stop playing cold turkey, you expect some acts of domestic violence," said Lens in his report, "but I certainly did not expect twenty-two cases."

Lens has forwarded the results from his study to the White House. Representative Barney Frank is preparing to use the study in his upcoming battle to legalize poker. Representative Spencer Bachus, on the other hand, had to cut short his daily lunch visit with Rush Limbaugh upon being handed the report.

Sources close to Bachus claim that he has already sought a Doctor that can dispute the findings of the study.
