As I read it, there are three major parts to this announcement:

-- No new deposits or transfers from Americans.

-- Players from the listed states are kicked off immediately.

-- All remaining Americans will no longer be able to play as of Nov. 13.

So in other words, Paradise is pulling out.

Read their whole announcement and you are right. Paradise is out.

Caveat: there were lots of reports that Paradise was looking to sell its US-facing businesses. What I think the November 12 thing means is that they're still looking to do that, but want to try and preserve what they can of their US customer base. However, they're playing it safe in states like LA, WA and IL that have relatively stronger internet gambling laws.
