When was the last time you heard the words "I'm from the government and I'm here to help you" that made you feel good. they would just turn it into another beuracratic mess like they have avery other business they touch. Ted Kennedy can't even drive his car and don't even talk to me about putting Barney 'the Queen' Frank in charge of anything other than listening to show tunes. 'Live Free or Die'.. Leave it to the individual to make the decision where he wants to spend his/her money. We are becoming a Nanny state...Just my humble opinion..

Can anyone explain to me what this actually means for US players?
There is already a law that states its illegal for banks to receive funds from Online gambling sites, right? So what exactly does this new law do? |

It doesn't even go into effect until later this year. If you prefer to have the decision to play poker, lash out at GW and his moral crusade. He's the one behind this. In the meantime, give some thanks to Frank for standing up for poker players.
What they need to do is simply legalize it. That way dirtbag companies licensed by the Kahnawake can't just treat their customers like a dog turd and get away with it. I've been waiting since mid-November for FTP to honor withdrawals and they cannot or will not do it. |

hahaha your not very smart man.
Also all the people who say get rid of these sites, why the fxxx are you even here then? Why do you have an account? Just because you are to stupid to be able to make money from poker doesnt mean it's "rigged" or all a con. If you don't like it, leave and never come back. Do something you think is better with your life. |

Ash has a point and I don't think it's racist. The level of service offered by the Commission's licensees is very low and the fees tend to be very high. What, exactly, is so great about the current Internet poker providers?
I believe the solution is to go legal and that the tide will sway that way. The legislation only attacks the shady licensees of the KGC. And they're not really better than most bookies.
lets try a little truth when we post ...ok ?...or is that too much for you for you to handle ?

| Dont help FUll Tilt, I hope they go out of business... They have been stealing from us for 5 years and now they want us to celebrate their birthday... SCREW THEM!! I cant wait until us Americans finally get a well regulated poker software where there is guarantee no cheating going on. Also, I would love to play on a site where they have phone number where you can contact them instead of answering your emails 20 days later... |
