Default Re: TruePoker will continue to welcome U.S players

No, we have no stake in the outcome, nor have we risked any money in the pot. Rake is a fee for the service, regardless of the outcome as to what player wins.

(Anyway, if it were an issue, a time charge system or a "flat rate per player hand dealt in" system would remove your concern. Thanks for raising it. My initial response is likely to remain our position, but in the "interesting" times, we are going to adapt as needed.)

(Ours is not a new reading of the term. In another statute, the Wire Act, this was the interpretation in dicta in a Federal Court of Appeals ruling.)
