Default OP66 Newbie Question
I've been here a little while now, but there's a burning question concerning OP66 that is bugging me.
I'm sure there's a simple and obvious answer, and I'm possibly going to look foolish for asking, but here goes....

Why are we called OP66???

Obviously OP is online poker, but why 66??

Is it related to 1966?
Maybe Route 66?
Lava's favourite number?

Anyone?

based on the logo I'd say route... but that still doesn't say why.... maybe online poker 69 was already taken
