Default Re: Why not just get an overseas bank account?

But Neteller IS an overseas bank account. Can somebody explain why it is going to be illegal to deposit with Neteller?

It won't be illegal to deposit to neteller, as i understand. what will be illegal is to transfer between neteller and your US bank account.

How? Neteller has "authentic" (i.e. non-poker related uses). How is transfering from/to my bank account to/from Neteller going to be illegal any more than some Swiss bank account?

The problem with that is that the fish won't bother doing it. The games will quickly dry up. You'll be playing only against other professionals.

I'm not too worried about this, but then again, I'm a SSNL player right now. There will be both losing AND winning players that stop playing, just more losing than winning. But the thing is, this doesn't affect the world, it only affects the U.S., and there are still plenty of fish in other countries. Yes, the games will certainly be tougher, but I don't think they will be nearly as much as you imply.
