Good riddance.

[1p0kerboy]

Goodbye.

Highest rake on the internet.

No rakeback or promotions ever.

You will be missed.

You people saying good riddance dont get it, this is bad IMO, because if it starts a trend we're all [censored].

Note how this article said PartyGaming was "still analyzing the situation" or whatever, in another article (London Times,check Legis forum) it says the same but analysts assume Party will follow suit. Too early to tell of course, but scary none the less.

Just cashed out $8 from a free bonus they gave me out of CON. Was going to donate my $.42 on pacific to some lucky player but $0.50 is the min buyin.

Jeeeezuz what would we all do if Party Poker, Poker Stars, UB, Full Tilt, and Pokeroom all announced within the month that they're no longer accepting US customers? I know it seems like a stretch, but Pacific ain't that far from the big 5.

Guess I'll be whoring CON tonight.

[teddyFBI]

well there'll be a ton of players who have been frustrated by Pacific's retarded 20K / month cashout limit (not even an appropriate bankroll to play their highest games) who will happily get a windfull cashing out amounts that previously would have taken them a half year to recover.

[pokergrader]

Wow, that sucks. I love pacific.

I really hope this quote in the article is just a bad paraphrase:

888 ... was said to be in the process of deciding to make a clean break with the US, paying back gambling deposits paid by customers when they registered on the company's websites.
