I pray that this is not true

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

I cant see Stars giving up so easily, I guess we'll see later today but they're so deep in the us market, but I guess we shall see.

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

We're about to witness a complete meltdown.

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

lawman's right. if this isn't a meltdown then what is?

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

I still dont trust gambling 911, it seems theyve been off base on a bunch of their postings.

That being said Im not optimistic about this either.

Stars is a different beast, first they arent publicly traded 2nd stars marketing compaign seems generally US focused. I would expect party to bolt alot faster than Stars, though granted stars pulling out wouldnt be some big shock but I am surprised they're acting this quick.

star have high rank executive from US.
Tom, Lee Jones..

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

The public/private distinction is being overplayed in my opinion. I don't think that the CEO of a private company would want to risk going to jail in America anymore than the CEO of a public company.

Its not unusual...

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

Among the high traffic sites, we might have only selected Ongame sites left after the smoke clears. Full Tilt, UB and Stars might be in crisis mode right now.

But have no fear, other sites will emerge as huge winners by taking on fleeing US traffic. Remember Planet Poker once dominated the online poker landscape - things change.

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

Well, either a lot of new stuff will come to light in the next few hours or we will know gambling 911 got a lot of their stuff wrong the past few days. Their articles always seem shady to me the way they never have any official information, yet they report "sources close" to some organization have contacted them for some odd reason.

There are those folks who will take the risk if the financial gain is big enough, kinda like drug lords.

Yeah, it's alway cool to do business with drug lords. They are generally very trustworthy with other people's money.

As an adendum to my comment, I'm getting a sense of perverse glee watching a revolution unfold before my eyes.

WTF are you talking about? I'm not taunting anybody, and you're crazy if you think that I'm happy about any of this. I love playing online poker. This is just awful.

I really wish I had been wrong. I really do.

good thing i just busto'd my account! [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

seriously though, this [censored] sucks

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

Seriously guys. We need to take a close look at our government and wonder why exactly we continue to pay them to strip away our rights.

The government has no right taking away this great game from us. Poker isn't the same as online slots or some [censored].

Instead of carefully studying online gaming or even DEBATING this, they let some nazi slide it onto an unrelated bill.

Sure, the end of online poker is not the end of the world. But the point is our government doesn't give a [censored] about the happiness of its citizens. This is the most reactionary, oppressive government to ever rule over the US.

It's not just this online gaming legislation. Take a look at this site prisonplanet.com.

There's all sorts of crazy [censored] going on in this country right now and people just walk around thinking they live in the greatest country- the leader of the free world.

Jefferson, Franklin, Payne, they are rolling over in their graves right now.

What a spineless group of sychophanatic, immoral, and soulless dicktards we have running this country.

Oh... and [censored] you Frist. You've made yourself some enemies.

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

Just to clarify. I feel your pain. Even though I won't be banned (I live in Canada), anything that decreases traffic is bad for me. This is obviously going to put a big dent in traffic.

But I do not feel that this is the end. You will all be able to play online poker somewhere, even if the places you are playing at are not named Party, Stars or even Full Tilt.

This is a facsinating look into the "panic mentality" that afflict most humans from time to time.

I understand Mason Malmuth will be issuing a statement in a couple of days after consulting with his lawyer. I'm sure MM will say there is nothing to worry about.

2+2
 

He's probably too busy translating the books into French, German, Farsi and Chinese to issue a statement

Stars is screwing around with my cashout.

I just tried to cash out about $1100 out of Stars and I got this email message:

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

I cashed out and had no problem, received no weird e-mail.

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

I had no problem just 30 min ago. Try emailing them.

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

The neteller site is down, so any cashout you make to neteller won't go through now. When neteller is back up it will go through.

Re: PokerStars expected to pull out as well
 

I know this probably isnt the place but I dont want to start a whole new thread. Has anyone heard of prima chiming in yet?

We're not screwing with your cashout. This is the result of a NETeller glitch. Our Payments department will be dealing with the problematic cashouts when NETeller comes back up. This is quite normal.
