It kind of looks like all US residents are going to have to go to Western Union with cash in our hands. Both of my banks are now declining even western union payments to overseas unless I am overseas at point of purchase!! Looks like I may have to quit playing poker! Either that, or the poker sites are going to have to open accounts in the US with account names that dont have anything to do with poker!!!

Id say your latter statement is a "No No" as it would open them up to all sorts of trouble from the "MAN" lol.

Do those prepaid all access whatever cards not work anymore? Either way, finding one of those or using western union (if that still works) is not that hard, every grocery store around here does Western Union.

Of course being a non-depositor, I have yet to have these problems. Guess I really have to stick to proper BRM for now on.

Well to say that you will have to give up online poker may be going a bit far. Worst case you can always mail a money order to a site. Yes it will take about 2 weeks and def not as conveniant as before, but still better than nothing.

or, more seriously, if you know someone who has a good bankroll and is willing to transfer some, you can buy your stake from that person. You can't take advantage of the bonuses but, relatively speaking, that's a minor problem.

Can mail them a check or transfer from a checking account to most of the bigger sites. I get a kick out of everytime a bank transfer is done, coming or going, it always appears different on my statement.

This is really going to open the doors for people making deals with American players to help them get their money online.

I hope NJ moves fast in getting our online law in place.
