Feds and online poker

[Sutter Kane]

Don't know how many online poker players visit UHM (GetSome?), I've played some but mostly play live game. It seems to me that the feds could use our resources on better causes, because I could really give a Fuck if people are getting their jollies playing poker online. Its ridiculous and yet another example of America shipping its currency to other countries by the planeload because non of these sites operate American soil. This story really grinds my gears.

The sites make it impossible to withdraw your winnings. I made a nice sum between poker and football bets last year and I had to send two forms of ID and a bank account number to the Netherlands :straightface:

Needless to say i never did that and promptly lost the money. I would love to be able to use a legit U.S. site.

You went to some shady n00b sites then. Click2pay, ewallet express, along with bank wires are all easy cashout options that don't have those requirements.

What was the cardroom and sportsbook you speak of?

It was Sportsbook.com I used Bodog for a while but then they changed up the way they did their banking and it wasn't easy to deposit or withdraw anymore :shrugs:

[steelba]

Bodog sucks, there are tons of easy depositing options if you havea debit or credit card.

Thank you, Federal government for getting up everyone's ass on the poker sites. Now THAT'S a worth-while expenditure of my tax dollars.

Fuckers.

[Elduardo]

I suspect that this will eventually be legalized.

yeah the gov just wants us to give our money to them, not another country
