This poll is for Non-US players.
Should we keep playing at non-US friendly poker sites like Paradise, Inter, Party, etc...? |

I am a U.S. player but if I wasn't I'd vote to keep playing wherever with the exception of privately owned companies that pulled out. The publicly traded companies really didn't have much choice.
I'm always invading posts that say they're not for me... |

I voted for, "yes why not, doesn't affect me". (Im from the UK)
Although saying this, I do only play on FulTilt + occasionally on Pokerstars.com. This is only because these were the sites I first started playing at, if however I had started playing at a site that did not support US players, I don't think I would of changed to another site just to follow US players? |

| Sure why not. I find the action is starting to dry up at Paradise though. I noticed Party doesn't advertise the number of players anymore when you log in (or at least I can't find that number) which means losing their customer base. Eventually I think we'll have no choice but to play on FT, PS or UB. |

I agree, plus if you are comfortable with the site, why change it.
I know I have been having trouble finding a site that feels like
home since pokerroom and hollywood have banned us. I am
enjoying your forum and the people here though |

I took my money out of Paradise today. Partly because they don't allow US players, and partly because I'm going to be playing most of my poker at FTP from now, where I get rakeback.
Paradise only had 3,000 players. Very sad. |
