How close are you to KY? I know another CCer in southern OH had an issue recently related to her ISP. Cake blocks KY but I see nothing anywhere on 2+2 about them pulling out of the US market and trust me it would be every where if they had.

I just contacted cake/powerpoker and they said my account wasnt showing it was blocked....i had to send them a screenshot of it...so it is prolly because I live close to kentucky.Ive been thru this before and sent them my proof of address a long time ago.
Prolly some noob they hired today is messing with stuff at cakepoker...

That's what you get for living on the wrong side of the state imo. Glad to hear it's just a temp glitch.

Contacted Doylesroom,which is blocked also,and they said they no longer allowed Washington,Louisiana,or Kentucky...so thats the problem evidently..but I have sent this proof before to cake n skins..,why am I going thru this crap yet again?...intertops/pokerworld hasnt blocked me as of yet....tune in next....

Cake and powerpoker has me back up n running,im still waiting for doylesroom,..havnt emailed redstar yet...dunno if I will get redstar back on..if ya know what i mean,lol..
But Kentucky caused all this mess for sure.What a worthless bunch, that runs that state!
If there are any attornies in here,I wonder if I could sue KY,for being the reason my internets blocked?KY has no juridiction in western Westvirginia.
In fact,western WV,and eastern KY,has had very big disagreements before.Ya ever heard of The Hatfields And McCoys?That took place right here.
