Here is why:

By playing online poker you are participating in an endavour that the FBI and the current US administration consider illegal. The FBI has recently said that ANYONE playing online poker in the US is committing a crime. The sites still operating in the US are under extreme and intense pressure by the Republican justice dept. In this environment it shouldn't be suprising that there is difficulty in transferring money back and forth. There will only be more check delays and confusion from all sites unless the US situation is resolved favorably for online poker players. At least we can still play at a few sites in the US, but who knows for how long unless this situation is resolved.
