Re: Few seem to have noticed how the new law \"fixes\" the Wire Act
Ryno, this angle is nonsense. If what you suggest is the case, Party and others would have simply blocked US gamblers from accessing their casino games.
Stars may be able to distance themselves from prosecution by taking their business offshore, appointing new managers, etc etc but that's doubtful, at least in the short term.
Stellar's post is spot on. This intention of this law is very clear, and the language regarding "games subject to chance" is directly targeted to make the law apply to poker, where before it did not.
