Does anyone have information regarding the legality of playing Internet poker within the Philippines? Thank you in advance.

I have no idea, but both times Bodog sent me WU, it was from the Phillipines.

If the regs stop us in the U.S. it will apply there are well, territories are included in the UIGEA.

Very funny map and nice to see where Antiqua and Barbuda is.

Wow, it's great to see where I'm going...but why does it take me 16 hours by plane to get there? They must fly over the North Pole to avoid Cuban airspace?
