Why do you post here? At least some people putting out negatives seem to WANT things to be different. You have no reason for being here. Please leave.

I heard Party's shutting down to US players, William Hill isnt offering bonuses (prbably gonna do teh same as Party) and Stars is gonna be next.
Anyone hear anything beyond that?

This is garbage.

What about a list of which Senators/Reps voted which way or at least a link to where this information could be found?

Thank you,

Be well.

The problem that few people seem to understand is the motive behind the bill. Conservatives see this as a nod to their religious right but if this were the only reason they would ban more than just this sort of gambling. The government sees online gambling as a loss in billions every year to foreign countries. They can't tax it on because technically it happens on foreign soil. Creating US companies would be too difficult to implement laws to allow US companies to do gambling sites because gambling is illegal in some states and laws are different in every state. There answer is to ban gambling to stop the flow of money out of the country.

The fact of the matter is complaints need to be voiced by the millions who play online poker, speak to your senators. Your house members and senators voted for this bill, I guarantee it. Only 2 voted against the bill because it's about securing United States seaports. The internet gambling clause was tagged on and ignored for voting.

Gamblers are worth representing.

FWIW, according to a chat I had with Neteller, they were planning to implement the new Terms and Conditions for a long time now and it has nothing to do with the bill. They also said at this time, they don't anticipate any changes in what they currently do.
