Full tilt and Cake poker thank american authorities.
I dont understand why American politics see poker like a problem, it should be a bless, they could be winning so much money with taxes, instead they ban online poker from the country. |

Yep. Hard to understand. And disappointing for those, who hoped for the new administration to ease things for online poker.

| But why did they freeze the transactions in the first place ? Did USA think they were shipping away 33 million $ to other countries ? |

| This is something i have been questioning myself for a while. In a moment of recession the world is drawn under, poker sytes continue full of big players investing their money in their quality poker and collecting the fruits of that investment. Its being better to play than to buy and sell auctions, thats for sure. In the game, what you do is the guarantee of success, or not... |

LOL Obama takes on Phil Ivey in the heads up final of the WSOP.........lol
Americans all the way through history have made some big gaffs and usually make the right decission in the end.
They either give up and stop challenging the poker players of the world or they'll get in on the action and start up poker site from the white house.  |

Surely there is something wrong with American politicians, banning poker sites and freezing transactions.
Thank god rest of countries are not like this
But good news for fulltilt and cake as their traffic will increase. cake is a new site and deserves more traffic then its getting now.
