Why is everyone cashing out?

I understand why everyone is cashing out of party, but why is everyone cashing out of other sites? Once Bush signs the bill on wednesday (or next week,) we still have 270 days to play and then we can cash out? What's the point of cashing out so fast?

You don't have 270 days to play on the sites that block you immediately.

Besides, reloading is instantaneous. Just reload when needed.

I understand with sites that block you immediately, but what's the point of doing it from sites like Full Tilt, Stars, and other sites like this that have yet to do anything?

It's 270 days max, but regulations could be in place much quicker than that. Additionally, not all sites are well-trusted, and many fear that some of them won't be able to cover all the cashouts. Those who withdraw first get their money. Those who wait might not.

What are all of the party skins? Is it just party poker or empire poker and all of the other ones? I have a ton of money on 888 with pacific poker.. are they going to do the same?

Get your money out of Pacific Poker fast. The sky is falling there. Seriously.

But I trust Stars like anything, so I don't really view it as a problem. But I've seen many people already cash out of stars. Should I cash out of Stars as well and just hold the money in Neteller/ Also, should I leave a small amount like 1K to play on Stars, or should I take it all out and then wait for their decision.
