When I logged into party poker this afternoon, I got this message:
The President of the United States has signed legislation that now causes PartyGaming to have to cease taking wagers from U.S. customers. We will also suspend accepting deposits from U.S. customers and examine potential offerings to U.S. customers that would be within the new law. This will not affect the Play For Free games and your Account will remain accessible.
Non-US players and all Play for Free games will not be affected.
If the U.S. would just allow us to play online poker and other things like online casinos, they would get revenue generated from the U.S. citizens that play on these gaming sites. But the religious right-windged folks won’t allow for this. Are they going to ban BINGO now? Is the U.S. affraid they are going to lose money if they allow citizens to play on online gaming sites? Well, they have been missing out because they don’t allow us.
