Possibly within this week, Michigan is gearing up to legalize online poker, and before the holidays it is set to come true. Last year, Michigan wasn't able to make online poker legal due to a last-minute veto from the governor.
This year however, the state is giving online gaming another try, and local media outlets confirm that there is a high chance it will be passed this time.

Well that is not uncommon to see since this type of thing leaves a lot of money and I think that when they want it to be more legal, more people play it as it happens with other things in several countries, but well I hope that those who live there is good news for the vicious hahaha

I wish for players from all the united states of america to receive the acceptance. to play poker with peoples from all continents or at least those from Europe and other parts of the world. I remember with pleasure when they were playing before Black Friday. It is good because we will have more tables and prizes as well.

That Online poker returns to the US, is not simply a dream, but a very close reality, if US enters the world of online poker again would be one of the best things that could happen, because it would be very beneficial news for the ecosystem of poker when entering a giant like the US, and initiatives like this brings us one step closer to this achievement.
If Michigan manages to legalize online poker, it will become the fifth state to do so, along with Nevada, New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania. I hope everything stays that way.

There are now 7-8 states in America that have legalized online poker but unfortunately i didn't see them at the tables. I don't know in which rooms they play, but probably pokerstars, 888poker, unibet or netbet are not licensed for them and i only play there.

when they allow poker stars and other companies to enter on market,as we already had news here on forum,they will expand in whole country and they we will see potential that they have as country and as players!I think that this will be country that will have most profit for poker stars and other companies in that consortium!

Letting them back to Pokerstars won't benefit the budgets of these states because 'stars won't play tax on them to anybody anyway, I am not even sure if they would pay for a local license. But getting americans back to online poker would do good for the traffic in many rooms tbh.

Believe me, Pokerstars is like a jackal who walks and he looking for food. They do not have a problem in paying the license, because the USA is a very big market. They pay the license for Romania from 2016 until 2026 and for a country like united states, they will do anything.
