I spent so much time watching the news on USA online poker after black friday that I couldnt stand doing it anymore. Now I am completely lost on where the USA is on allowing online poker so can anyone catch me up.

Hello and welcome to CC. Carbon, Lock, and Bovada are a few options. Even thought their no pokerstars, they are an option. Based on what I've read about the time it takes for payouts on Lock, I would chose a different option if I were you. If you have any other questions feel free to ask. Thanks.

Bovada, ACR and BCP you can deposit via credit card. Carbon and Lock you need to use Western Union or P2P transfer.. I definitely like Lock more for their software and traffic.. But a lot of bad news going around about them not paying out.

There is so much info about this topic in the "poker rooms" section on this forum that it is not even funny.. People will probably post some stuff in your thread, but do a little bit of research and you could find out everything you need to know

EDIT: and BTW... all US online poker players want to play at poker stars... :[

On BOVADA you only get those kind of guarantees for the $150 buyin....usually get about 800 players and pays 20k for first.....its pretty soft at BOVADA and right now I gathering tickets through smaller buyins and hopefully to play alot of $30+ buyins all weekend

carbon does take visa cards and western union transfers, and poker stars has always allowed U S players to download the play money (pokerstars.com) is play money.. and real money is pokerstars.net....

Yeah they were absolutely the best! I remember them starting with something like 20,000 players didn't it? Common poker site owners, that's where it's at lol

Instead of moving maybe I'll look into joining the fight to change the laws. I can see many ways the states could benefit from online poker.

i agree but we need to join the cause to make it federally regulated instead of just state by state

I definitely hear that! I will look into it. We should also talk to the poker sites that are available to us now and see what it will take for them to offer the same kind of games.
