Re: TruePoker will continue to welcome U.S players
"This is pure nonsense, and you know it. If not, get a new lawyer.'
This "pure nonsense" as you put it comes from the definition of "bet or wager" under this Act.
A purely poker site does neither, as it has no stake in the outcome of the games and risks no money in the pot. Since we do neither "betting or wagering", how can you assume us to be in the "business of betting or wagering'? We are not a sportsbook or casino.
There is an argument that if it is illegal for a player to bet or wager under State law, then a State law might reach bring us under the Act somehow as to new deposits. We will look at those issues of course.
