Smile Will PartyPoker come back to the USA now that Online Gambling is going to be Legalized?

I played on PartyPoker back in 2004 and there were so many people there that it blew everything else out of the water.

Will PartyPoker be coming back to the USA now that online gambling is going to be legalized?

I certainly hope so. This was the only site I could ever win on lol. Probably because the players there were just horrendous. Partypoker really was king of the poker sites back in 2004-2006 and it wasnt close. They were the ones that started the Sunday Million and stars stole it. So many dumbass fools dont even remember this and think stars was always #1. Stars only became #1 bc Party was publicly traded.

and it was paradise poker as the big site before party. and planet poker before that in like 1999.

anyhow, i srsly doubt all the players on party are stuck in 2005 donkey mode and i'm sure they play similarly to the ppl on the other sites.

I play at Party. It has both the worst players in the world and the worst software of any online Poker site. It is really difficult to believe that they are incapable of bringing their software up the level that Paradise Poker had in 2001. The games are soft but the software is tuff.

Do a quick thinking exercise and tell me the difference in poker 2004-2006 and 1999. I'm pretty sure Party will be easier than stars or tilt if it allows back US players. At least for awhile that is.

Not even close. OP was very hasty in posting this.

Basically, Barney Frank's bill to legalize and regulate online gambling was backed by the House Financial Services Committee yesterday (fwiw, I believe he is the head of that committee).

This battle is far from over. This is a small step in the right direction, but unfortunately, there are many more steps to take before it is written into law.

They'll be allowed back in 100% You don't go and pay the U.S. Justice Dept. $200M just because you're sorry.

the differences were mainly the boom and the sudden acceptance of NL as a common game when it used to be FL

well golly i can't come up with why poker on party will be easier, perhaps you can share with us and tell us why the euros on 2p2 say party is more or less the same as stars/tilt
