Going back to Stars...need opinions, please

Looked thru 30 pages, saw no post like this...sorry if I'm repeating something that is asked often.

Hello, all. Been away from poker for the past 7-8 months while I paid off all my debts (car, credit cards, new computer). As they say, don't be afraid to risk what you can't afford to put in the middle....or something.

Now that I'm back in black, I want to start playing on Stars again. I missed their tourneys quite a bit...

1. There's about 80k on every night, so obviously many people are not worried about the legislation that was passed down by the Nazi Empire...I mean US government. Is there anything I should worry about?

2. I was going to deposit using WU. Anything I should be afraid of there?

3. How safe do you feel leaving $$ on PS these days?

I thank you in advance for your help!

1. Nothing to worry about.

2. Make sure you get an MTCN number from WU. Should be on your receipt, but I had one idiot employee print a receipt without it once.

3. Very safe.

Good luck!

For two, why don't you try using your debit card first? Mine never worked before but went right through a few weeks ago - it does get charged as Pokerstars.com though.

Awesome, Nut. Thanks.

Well....I'm a little scared of the legislation, to be honest. I don't want this tied directly to my checking account - or is that paranoia? Again, 86k people on Stars at this very moment. Let's be generous and say 25k are from other parts of the planet - thats 61k who don't seem too concerned...
