"Even better, move to Britain FFS, zero income tax and a choice of sites with robust oversight."


American citizens leavin in England or elsewhere still owe income-tax. Supposedly gamblers don't even get a tax-exception for their first $80k of income earned aborad although it has been argued that gambling professionally somehow makes a difference.

Don't want to turn this into a tax thread of course...just pointing out that "move to England, pay no taxes" is not necessarily accurate for an American citizen.
