Anybody know if this phrase is true "PokerStars has officially left the U.S. market, although a refresh of its website around 4:30pm ET loaded it normally."

Blocking it right now doesn't seem like an official statement to me. Are they going by something else?

This is part of Obama and Holders plan to control the internet.

btw - if poker players were 83% black, this would never be happening. It's because online poker players are mostly non-black, non-hispanic. The law is just another political tool for Obama.

I hate to see what's next in the internet control realm for these guys.

This is bad. Very bad. I'm scared.

Guess it's time to start playing video games again. Anyone up for a game of NCAA football 11?

Was this coup d'état influenced by Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada and the Obama administration "Justice" Department?

You may only wager state lotteries, Indian reservations, and union-raked casinos, but not at home on your own computer.

just about the worst possible scenario, other than the feds coming out and saying all funds are seized and the actual poker software clients not letting you even login to try to get your money...

i have an echeck withdraw for ~500 it says it is going to go through... crossing fingers.

This is f'ing horse sh*t black friday FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUU
