hi

who has closed existing US player accounts ?????

this is news to me - I dont know of any companies who have close any existing US player accounts

Poker is NOT currently banned in the US - yes there is legislation going through but it hasnt be fully approved etc

there are companies who dont allow US players to join up to sites but this isnt the same as banning and confiscating existing player funds which is what you seem to be suggesting

the only reason I know of players getting banned (from any countries not just the US) is from cheating

who are these friends in the US ??

what sites have done this ??

what reasons did they give ??

the law on internet poker / online sportsbooks related to the US wire act HAS NOT become law and ISNT being applied yet

all that HAS happened so far is a few sportbooks & poker sites have been careful when setting up their business not to operate in US or take on US players - thats very different from pulling players accounts

It is most likely that the UK will become regulated and make online poker totally legal clearing up any confusion for UK players.

you need to give some concrete info on this and that is wasnt because players were breaking the rules or signed up to a site which clearly stated no US players - if thats the case then thats just tough luck they didnt read and obey the rules

pop up some more info
