    Default Will Online Poker Finally Be Regulated And Licensed In the United States ?

    hi all

    light at the end of the tunnel for online poker in the US ?

    Will Online-Poker Finally Be Regulated And Licensed In the United States ?

    Possible good news from Barney Frank for online gamblers within the United States - the UIGEA regulations may be included in the list of “midnight regulations” that the current Congress will look to rescind.

    cheers scrawnybob

    The USA is in such financial turmoil with what appears to be a full blown recession that the money that could be generated by making OL poker/gambling legal and regulated could almost single handed put the USA back in the right direction. Politicians should realize that its almost impossible to stop OL poker/gambling.

    You are talking about politician though and common sense is not their strong suit.

    Now that that idiot Bush is gone it appears there is a real chance to get some rational legislation for online gambling. Lets hope it makes the playing field more level.

    USA big different lots of things. Poker is illegal because old game law is available! (1802 law unbelive)
    Las Vegas city is famous from many casino!? That is illegal!!
    PokerStars and FullTilt the two big poker room in world many USA gambler play every day! Illegal or No!

    In USA is money crisis if poker will legal lot of money will be pay in state.
    I think this year bring change.

    Poker Player :: Articles :: Can the Poker Player’s Alliance Overturn the Bans on Online Poker?

    Read this Lou Krieger article for more insight. It appears that both Democrat Speaker Pelosi and Democrat Attorney General Holder side with former president Bush. I'll add that both powerful Democrat Senator's from California oppose online gambling, Oh ya, the Democrat head of the Senate, one Harry Reid, has opposed online gambling. He'll flop like a dying fish if the big casino money wants this. THere is still a big uphill battle for USA poker players.

    I am sooooo ready for the government to start using common sense on this issue, and regulate it so that I don't have to worry about what will happen with my money....and so that I can continue my poker addiction....LOL

    Their strong point is promising a lot of things before they are elected, and then strangely forgetting about a lot of them after they have been voted in.
