5 questions after a year break

[RustedCorpse]

I haven’t played online in over a year, I live in the US and to be honest I thought the crackdown was going to bigger than it was and after that real life got in the way.

1) People keep saying certain sites aren’t for U.S. players (cake etc..) Why is this? Is it simply that these sites will have nothing to do with people from US addresses?

2) Is Party Poker still decent to play on?

3) Poker Tracker and Poker Ace still good on FTP, Stars and Party?

4) Any recommendations for deposits and withdrawals? I want to use Epassporte however read a ton of negative feedback about them here. Currently looking into money gram but worry about withdrawals.

5) I assume the majority of U.S. players that still play are decent (or at least persistent) what hours would people recommend to maximize my fish pool?
