Poker Sites Located in USA

Thanks,

None online poker is illegal in the us.

Or is it. Cardschat has a US poker sites for US Players page to read.

so ur telling me i cant get my money out or put money in still?

You can still get your money out and you are not breaking any law by doing so, atleast the way I understand it. Putting money on will be getting harder soon but they are going after banks not the people depositing. I think they will always find a way for you to get money on their site. So I wouldn't worry too much.

What Pedro means is running a poker site from within the USA is illegal. Playing on a poker site from within the USA is not.

Yeah, sorry, that is what meant should have been clearer.

...I mean in the way they treat online gambling, including poker. Under the legal system set up in the United States, gambling is a 'state concern', meaning that different states have the right to regulate gambling within their borders differently from other states. Federal law cannot generally pre-empt state law, if the state law is crafted properly. Insurance and real estate law are also areas of the law in which the 50 states can craft their own laws and regulations. So in Kentucky, I believe that there IS legal liability for an individual to even play poker online. But that is the only state where that exists, as far as i know. I'm a lawyer, but gambling is not my legal specialty. I would definitely want to make it my recreational specialty. That's why I like this site!

Is Online Poker Illegal in your State?
I believe that this is still current!!
Currently there are considered to be no Federal laws which prohibit US citizens from playing poker online, but certain States have implemented laws to prohibiting gambling over the internet. The only state where it appears to be 100% certain that online poker is illegal is the State of Washington. I don't know about Kentucky!
Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Michigan, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, South Dakota, Washington, Wisconsin.

No restrictions here in the UK pal, no tax on winnings either, not that i win much. On the down side it rains a lot.

Are people in Washington still finding a way to play? The Kentucky thing is where the state tried to confiscate poker domain names and some poker sites like Carbon decided to pull out. Kentuckians, are there still active sites there?

I live in Michigan, supposedly one of the illegal states. Some networks and US poker sites are closed, like Prima and Doyle's Room, but PS, FT, Carbon, Bodog and others are still up. So are UB and Absolute, although they should be boycotted by all players.

The frustrating thing about the Michigan prohibition is that I went to the state website where laws are published and found NO law prohibiting online poker. Ask somebody at Doyle's Room what law they are referring to and they give a non-answer. So sites are operating under paranoia and rumors rather than real legal research.

I'd really like to know if and where people in Washington and Kentucky are playing.
