Really, that is a bad idea.
I want to play player's from the ROW.
I did not post all of it. I don't know if it was posted before, i looked for it.
Would the status quo continue during the 15-month blackout period? Can I continue to play on Revolution and Merge during this time?
Revolution, Merge and similar networks are considered unregulated offshore sites. Players have and always will participate on unregulated sites at their own risk. Following the enactment of the bill and the blackout period, that risk would be increased.
Reid/Kyl appears to include language criminalizing play on non-approved sites. Therefore, “winnings” and any property used for illegal online gambling as defined under the new law would be subject to forfeiture.
Such prospects would become real immediately upon signing of Reid/Kyl or any bill containing similar language, and would not be subject to blackout provisions regarding regulated operator startups. That poker players would allow themselves to be criminalized for playing poker in any form is one of the biggest obstacles against player support for Reid/Kyl.

Why does it not allow international player pools? Is this workable?
The exclusion of international player pools appears to be an attempt to keep all aspects of a site’s operation within the realm of United States jurisdiction, including the players. Lacking such a ban, international players who attempted to defraud member sites could remain outside the sites’ and government’s financial and jurisdictional reach.
