To add, in case that isn't clear to everyone: All of this mostly applies to nationals from ESTA eligible countries. Anyone else can't travel to the US without a proper visa anyway.

If you're not a citizen of one of the WVP countries you already have to provide proof of funds during the visa process.

At least from the EU you can't even board a flight to the US without visa/ESTA. Maybe 15 years ago one guy from our Vegas WSOP crew found out about that the hard way.

They need to declare that they are coming to play poker and are poker professionals where they live.

I do not know it for a fact but I do not believe MuckPLS is a pro. I am sure from his TRs he does not grind the poker tables 40+ hrs per week

You can look up and read his TRs here. Or she can ask him.

If your country of origin qualifies, then" Global Entry" ftw

Best $100 I ever spent and it lasts 5 years..

Longer and cheaper than either hookers or blow.
