I did Google it....and it´s a mess! Seems to depend on the State laws, Federal laws, and a bunch of related confusion.
They keep creating new "Bills" and changing the laws. Some Casinos are "approved" and some aren´t. But because the laws keep changing, some online Casino sites seem to be pulling back from the US market.

I dont think this is some kind of persecution to online poker or even to casino for that matter. the main issue here is that some of those sites ( and as we know now FTP was one of them) break the law to increase their profit margins. if the laws r fair or not i dont have enough knowledge of them to comment but obviously some sites comply to them and till now r up and running without major problems. Surely they make less money but at least so can you! no br freezing like that
