Like many others, I am blocked from joining real money games on poker stars. Unfortunately it is the only site I currently have a bankroll. So....

Anyone have a suggestion of where it might be safe to deposit and play for U.S. Players?

I think bodog is safe, as they have already had their go round, but nothing is guaranteed.
Doyle's room might be okay...

I have been having to play at Bodog now for a while as I live in Washington state.

Could be a good thing for Bodog, I assume many players will relocate there and prize pools will be larger. Unfortunately, the games may not be as easy now.

hm well obama really need money very unlucky for all players
Hadn't thought about it that way. So that is Obama's deficit reduction plan?

Makes about as much sense as some of the other stuff he has done.

Interestingly enough, Stars will let me register for tourneys using fpps or freerolls. Not that it really matters.

If you're American...I wouldn't suggest putting too much money..if any...into an online poker site period..until things develop a bit more. You might be seeing it go up in smoke.

I'm taking this opportunity to take a leave of absence from the game of poker, before this crap happened my bankroll was up from what I deposited in the first place, and it was a small bankroll to boot.

I should of seen this coming back when I started playing online poker, as a U.S. citizen, I have to admit I am sickened by how our government is banning things not just poker but other stuff as well.

I have been playing the NL rings at FT all night. To my knowledge, the depositing and withdrawing has stopped but one can still play with their current bankroll.

OMG don't suggest Doyles!?!?!? Pooff, have you checked out the 'new' Doyles? (I'm guessing you haven't). Doyles is worse than not playing imo.

Yeah, i tried out doyles tonight, made an account, it wanted me to upgrade the site and it wouldnt load up, also it wouldnt let me register for a free roll sng game. Didnt much care for the game selection, so i guess for now im staying on Lock , Tried to make a Bodog account last night and it wouldnt let me for some reason, kept giving some error message when i hit the Join button.

Interested in Carbon. Any idea what their deals/promos/bonus are like? (That is, assuming they don't also go busto for US players....)
