Intrastate would be just within a states borders. I believe poker needs to be "interstate" like Mega Millions or Powerball for the larger player pools. Places like Pokerstars and Full Tilt were great because they had a huge player base. …

News has been very good lately IMO regarding online poker. Many states including Nevada, New Jersey, California, D.C.(not a state), and even Iowa are working towards a framework for poker. Unfortunately most proposals are intrastate, but something…

I don't think he's mad at you. If he is, it's his own problem! Peace man, Keep having fun.

What do you think about taking Lopez in a 5 setter at 22:1??

You will probably get your money, but like others have been saying it will probably take at least 6 months or longer to get it. These companies are still servicing other countries, so they can't hose us, or else their business is completely toast w…

Play online is great advice.... You see so many hands and can learn a ton. IMO good online players are superior to most "live" players. I'd recommend playing at least two tables so you don't feel like you are wasting your time. If you d…

Yes, UIGEA is delayed six months thanks in large part to the efforts individual citizens and organizations like the PPA. That doesn't mean that this is close to being over. The letters to Congressman are in regards to specific bills that support o…

Yeah... Little surprised but it is the internet. I think if people had a true understanding of what could happen or what may have happened by now without action they would sing a little different tune. It took UIGEA to kind of wake people up that …

Gov't has been really hard on bodog compared to many other sites from what I have read. I had the debit card which got me paid quickly, a day or two, but that recently got shut down. From what I have read on other forums it will probably take abou…

Good Job fellas!! I hope many others are taking the time to do what myself and you have done. This is not just a one time thing. This is something that we will have to continue to do for several years. I believe the future does hold good things …

I would say it is probably worthless. I think the processor was most likely busted by the gov't. Maybe hold onto it til end of year and see what happens. I hope bodog credited your acct. like they did mine??? It was nice while it lasted. Too ba…

Yeah, they would definitely like things to go smooth... They were super w/ the instant stuff when that could still exist. I guess many of us had thoughts that this could happen in the back of our minds. It took a long time, but it could finally be…

I have personally received payouts from bodog. I have the atm which has worked fine even after the bust. As far as I know, moneygram has also worked fine. The checks could be fcked IMO. Can't see them wanting to do more when they will be found o…

Here is a breakdown of the vote on the bill that Ed was talking about. Y=Yay.. for N=Nay...against R 5767 King Amendment [32 (29D, 3R) - 32 (28R, 4D)]: Democratic Members Chairman Barney Frank: Y Rep. Paul E. Kanjorski, PA: Y Rep. Maxine Waters…

Here is a breakdown of Senators: 2008 U.S. Senate Races Key +: voted against Sen. Kyl's S 474, which passed the Senate 90-10 ?: unknown F: cosponsored anti-Internet gaming legislation (S474, S 692, S627, S 3006) or S 972 (eliminated federal tax ded…

The bill Ed was talking about was drawn up to basically overturn the enforcement of UIGEA from what I understand of it. It was introduced by Barney Frank. Frank contends that UIGEA is too burdensome on banks. It did have more support, but a few R…

Here is a list I copied and pasted from another site. It lists the all the Reprentatives and how they have voted on bills related to online gaming. Even if your rep. is for online gaming... WRITE TO THEM AND LET THEM KNOW THAT YOU APPRECIATE THEIR…

I've read on a couple of forums where people's banks have called the individual customer and ask what the transaction was for??? As long as you don't acknowledge it is for gaming they didn't do anything to prevent it. I think it is quite rare overa…

Good info. Wes.. I'm not much of a tech guy, so I honestly didn't know a person could do that. You say it is simple to do??? If it eventually gets to a pt. where the whole U.S. blocks major gaming sites, your info will be helpful to the board. Pl…

From what I've read, a similar bill aparently passed the Ny Senate last year, but died in the Ny Assembly. I assume the bill this year will pass the Senate again, hopefully it will die in Assembly again this year. If it does get passed by both, it…

Aren't we all thankful for what the U.S. gov't has done for us?? I'm so thankful they are protecting us from our money. If we had our money we would buy things and infuse money into the economy. Thank you gov't for protecting us. Gov't, I hope y…

April Fool's?? Guess not since its Jan. yet. Tony exemplifies class on and off the field. The Colts will be fine with or without him next year.
-
You would think so, but they did just get done playing the Spurs last night and got a big win. Tonite's game could be a let down. Plus I've heard some quotes out of Coach Karl's mouth that lead me to believe he doesn't have even an ounce of respec…

I'm pretty sure Pinnacle is a European book. The EU and U.S. just made an agreement for compensation because of U.S. free trade infringements under the WTO treaty. So the answer for now is never.

You are fine playing online, because it is NOT against the law. Many ads on radio try to make it sound illegal, but its not. There are 11 states who have specific bans, but no one has ever been prosecuted for the act of placing a wager. The gov't…
-
Yep.. pretty sad. What's worse is it should've been at least a few billion between the EU and Antigua. Imagine if they would've have had to deal w/ that chunk just to keep us away from the immorality of online gaming. Of course I'm sure we would'…
-
The U.S. is ABSOLUTELY getting off way too easy. The EU and Antigua should be getting billions in compensation if they are not allowed in U.S. The violations of free trade are clear cut. I cannot understand how we, the U.S., continue to get away …

Nevermind my above post :) Just read the beginning of your post. Sorry
