I've got a question for ya.
I know you can play in many poker sites after the "Black Friday" of poker. But how is it happening on the field? You can't access poker sites and download them, because it's not possible? Or because it's not legal (and your afraid that the Feds will bust ur asses) ?

That’s right, they just can’t get access to their accounts anymore. They are recognized as being from USA through the way their accounts are registered or, in case of being trying to create new accounts, through their IPs, and that stops them from register. And if they would try to register as from being from another country, how would they put the hands on the money in case they won? Or how would they deposit?

Actually I can download most sites and there are several out there for U.S. players to play on as of today, but Fultilt and Pokerstars will only let you play chip games no real money games.
The truth is not one U.S. player got busted for playing on-line poker. The U.S. was after the owners not the players and that's exactly what they got. To be honest Carbon Poker has excelled into a competitive poker site with all the money they're generating from U.S. players. If the truth were known Fulltilt and Pokerstars are just losing money because if they're running a legitimate business the U.S. don't really give two poops.
Now there are some who can't read or just like to make 12 year old comments or try to be cute with their idiocies because they have nothing better to do, but grow old instead of up. Oh sorry sam didn't notice you replied!

As Green told you they can actually acces their accounts and actually play on play money but thats it...
As for sites that allow US players on their real money tables the danger is for the sites not for the players that play, the worst that could happen would be the site to close and the money forfeited by gov.
