the part about not giving cashouts makes no sense to me. the UIGEA doesn't say checks won't be accepted from poker sites, u just can't deposit onto poker sites.

Gambling911 is a rag, 70% of the stuff they print is crap, it's like a bunch hyper high school boys running a virtual newspaper.

Agreed. Remember, the UIGEA only restricts the ability of US banks to send funds *to* online gaming sites.

while this is true, and i'm only playing devil's advocate here, but the banks can still block checks coming from poker sites.

while it doesn't make much sense nor is it very likely they would do that without being told to, HSBC bank has told it's customers that "playing poker online is illegal"

I think one of the problems is that the local banks in Antigua will shut down all "Gaming" companies bank accounts. I think I read this somewhere else before. It sounds like the problem is not related to players using the banking system but rather the gaming operators having problems.

I remember when they said the Pokerstars was DEFINITELY going to leave the US as soon as UIGEA was signed.
