Posted by justblazed1: Y not let U.S. have a withdraw option for mob points on Carbon Poker? Look forward to reply!
G'day mate
How about the simple answer. If they did they would be breaking the law. Currently the US Federal government stills says it is illegal for US citizens to play online poker. Carbon poker is breaking the law by allowing US players and if BRM was to allow cashout's to their site then they would be committing a felony under US law.
I think it would be a BAD idea for BRM to do that but what do I know

It's not just "plug and play" to add cashout options ("affiliate to player"-transfer options needed, a reliable funding method, deals, players, etc). Since Carbon Poker is not represented, then I'm assuming there's a good reason for it.
But who knows, maybe sometime down the line.
You should send an e-mail to your President or whoever and ask them to ease up on the gambling laws, so you can join the rest of the world in online poker again

KowKain, the OP and admin talk about the option to cashout mob points to carbon poker, not real money...
I saw that the white house has a special petition system now, so if 100k people sign it on the white houese website the petition will definately be read by the president. Not sure if this will change anything but i think 100k signatures is nothing really.
but why cant us have mob points posts mob draw and calender is not poker / betting points are earned and won in games with no stake i think U.S players should be allowed to cash out to e wallets then do what they want with it

And who told you that ewallets permit such transactions for US players? Just ask green who cant use Moneybookers to get his points while BRM has tried multiple times to do the transaction.

I have just looked on the Moneybookers site and here is the list of country's you can use them:
But saying that I have used the Moneybookers Mastercard to buy and sell items from the US.. In fact I used it yesterday to pay to have some DVD's mastered. So it is possible.
