Default DoylesRoom - open to US but not all states

hi

yep I have to be a bit careful how the reviews are worded (but I will put something in)

basically DoylesRoom is open to US players with the exception of a few states
I havent named them as I dont want to get too involved in the legal side of things

rough explaination is that some sites have decided they dont think the UIGEA is enforceable
(it's specifically banking legislation) but some of them dont want to mess with state law which may or may not apply to poker under the WIRE act - most legals dont think it applies to poker (it clearly does to sportsbetting) but some sites would rather play safe and be fliying in the face of the UIGEA because they dont think it's legally enforcable but the WIRE act might be

hope that makes sense - but this forms no legal advice what so ever ;-)

cheers scrawnybob
