How is poker in the u.s all of a sudden legal?
Justice department will eventually shut it down
Starting with paypal

Also I can't see pokerstars being to happy since they have to
go state by state and will bitch about it..probably to the justice department

Where is global located?

There's nothing sudden about it - it's been legal since the first day a site offered it.

Nope. DOJ letter Wire Act dos not apply to poker. Where have you been, in a cave.

I actually like it the way it is. Use it to your advantage. Try to induce 10x mislclick calls.

one thing i encountered and noticed is that sometime when I go all in it leaves 1 cents behind? When I have few tables open and the game play option is no longer available.

Question:

I registered via Facebook and the name on my FB account is not reflective of my real name, it's a nickname. Will this cause any issues?

Hey, send us an email so we can check your account and give you proper advise on what to do.

Was going to post the 1¢ problem also. Seems if you click too fast is when it happens. Give a second after clicking all in before betting. Seems to help.
Also, is there anything in the works for a waiting list for ring game tables?

Is there anyway I can play through Face Book without my friends list being in your system? Looking forward to playing at your site.

Respectfully request a timestamp in the chat window so I can figure out if the latest smart ass comment is referencing the previous hand or a hand from 10 minutes ago.

You may register an account with Global Poker using your Facebook account but, to be able to play, you need to go to the site as we do not have Facebook app yet.

Your suggestion has been noted and we will make sure to forward this to the Poker Team for future enhancement of the site. Thank you!

can we get some new table themes more colors? :P thanks

We will have more table themes in coming deployments

Niceeeeeee xD i need some new colors new moods ya digg

higher stakes gold coin games please 100/200 being the highest stake is boreingggg zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Done.

It's now been a month since I mailed in my amoe envelopes and nothing. Anyone else seen any movement since Zecko?

I cannot get in. Anyone else?

Hi guys, we just had a short downtime. We made a few fixes and had to take down the system . Its coming back online now.

Playing devil's advocate, didn't you mail yours on Feb 13 just like I did? If so it won't be a month until Monday. Zecko's got credited in what looked like 3 and a half weeks, and I'll bet they've been deluged with letters since then (Zecko was one of the smart ones who got in early). I'm not going to start worrying until about the 22nd.

Global *has* to take AMOE *very* seriously - it is *critical* to their business model that NO PURCHASE IS NECESSARY or else the entire legality of their site goes right out the window.

I don't blame them one bit for only crediting six dollars per letter - if they make it TOO easy they'll end up giving out so much free money it'll be impossible to cover their costs even with the rake.

Having said all that, if the Global Poker admins would be kind enough to give us some statistics on AMOE, i.e. how many did they process yesterday and on what day were those mailed so we can have some idea how much longer we're likely to have to wait, I would appreciate it.

I'm not really worried, I'm just curious and wondering if I should do them for March.

thanks! this is niceeee!
