PLAYING FOR CASH IS THE US?

#1 27-01-2007, 3:32 PM

I was playing for a while very low limit NLH (.01/.02 & .10/.20) and managed to take my $100 Bank Roll to $300 on Titan when the new prohibition law came down. Titan said I should take my money out as they wouldn't let me play for cash anymore so I did.

Then I found out that 4 sites: Poker Stars, Full Tilt, Bodog and Ultimate Bet would let US residents play. I emailed Stars to see how I would get my money out if I deposited with them and though they were a bit vague said they kept all $$ in a separate bank.

Then I read FP's 8 poker lessons and got inspired to take my on line play to another level so I tried to deposit in my Neteller account to send it on to Stars and Neteller now does not deal with gaming sites for US residents.

So I need to know how to get around this stupid situation. I don't want to deposit unless I am assured that I can take winnings out in the long run and I hate to think that I am destined to play only play money tables from now on. Can anyone shed some light on how to deal with this?

it is my understanding that if you deposit at pokerstars you can get your money out by check. it may take a few weeks. i have yet to withdraw only deposit though
