Bad news, guys. Doyle`s Room and other Tribeca sites are to ban Americans from the end of this month:

Tribeca To Withdraw Network Services from U.S. Market at Month's End | Poker News

Not unexpected, but still not good.

Man, that sucks. I really really think I am going to see myself with an offshore bank account in the future. This stuff is depressing for all of us poker freaks.

Apparently, yes. Rumour has it that they are going to launch a new site based around a modification of the Full Contact software.

Even more "great news"....if you are a US citizen and buy an "allaccess" visa...deposit the WHOLE AMOUNT in one shot....I lost $25.00 of my card because I only deposited $25 of the $50 it was worth

[I lost $25.00 of my card because I only deposited $25 of the $50 it was worth ]

OK.... it all worked out now...here's the catch...IF you use the gift card "online or over the phone" your are expected to REGISTER the card FIRST!!!

If you use ALL of the card in one shot, fine no problem... if NOT...then IF you register it, you get the remainder of the $$$

Yea but regristration is pretty easy...enter your card#, phone #, and address I think. Dont quote me but I dont think you need to keep the hard copy of your card for verification if you register.
