Thanks again!!!

So bodog doesn't have mac software. Where can a US person play on a mac book that has actually pays out?

if this came up on page 53 of this thread or something, please forgive me for not reading that far back.

Everleaf Network(Minted Poker, RaiseandFold, etc...) offers a Browser version. They will also be releasing a new Beta Poker Client that will have a Mac downloadable version. According to the Minted Poker Rep, the Beta should be released on Sep 15th.

You can always install parallels on your Mac to run Windows on it.

So it sounds like there are LITTLE to NO options for US players right now?

There are options. Read the last few pages but options include:

Cake Network(preferably Intertops, IMO)
Bodog
Everleaf(Minted Poker/RaiseandFold)
Yatahay Network(True Poker)

Then there is Merge when and if they start accepting new US players.

There aren't as many options as there used to be, but there are still options.

There are quite a few underground sites (mainly Italian but Asian too) where you can play but of course you need to find a good agent.

****load of dodgy ones out there as i've read from this forum. People getting their money stolen and such. But if you're willing to take the risk go for it.

It's all lies.

There are no places for US players to play at right now.

I just attempted to sign up for 10 different sites and none of them will accept payment from the US.

Wrong...i just played on Intertops and Bodog this weekend after not having played since BF. There are options.

I don't care about players who had existing accounts on these sites before Black Friday. I am talking about being able to sign up and deposit money on sites with brand new accounts. It ain't happening. I tried for 3 hours today. I even spoke to customer support and they said it is because I am from the US and they can't take the credit cards.

Try Minted Poker. I created an account this month and have been playing there just fine. They have a thread here if you wish to check them out.

Pretty sure that all of the sites still accepting u.s. players will offer you to deposit via cash transfer! So hurry the f**k up and do a cash advance on your CC and deposit, lol!

It's not that they don't accept players or Credit Cards its that the Credit Cards are being denied. In fact, I know some sites that accept US players currently that do accept some Credit Cards if the Credit Card is enabled for International Purchases, but I prefer not to post about specific processors that some sites offer on a public forum.

All the sites I listed above will accept Cash Transfers if they deny your Credit Card.

Your just looking in the wrong spots and with the wrong Deposit methods both. Now depending on the state your in, you may only have less options then others, but there is definitely options available.

Under this criteria you wouldn't have been able to play even before Black Friday. Two of the current sites actually did accept my credit card though. I would recommend using Western Union - all the sites pretty much accept that.

Why all of the lies? There are no sites accepting US players at this time. I have tried them all. And it isn't too bright to goto a Western Union location in person to do an online poker deposit. So don't advice me to do so.

I realize that you guys are scared of revealing your sources of where to play since you don't want any good players joining. But this is getting ridiculous.

I signed up for Bodog yesterday and was able to deposit and play. I live in Texas.

Your wrong. Also don't be afraid of western Union. You obviously have some preconceived notion about it that you should get over. It's not a big deal at all. Go to Safeway and deposit within 5 minutes. Stop Crying.

Can you please tell me which deposit method you used? I cannot get anything to work.

I know it's frustrating, but people aren't lying to you ITT.

There are plenty of sites that are accepting US Players. Most of them are "hit or miss" with Debit/Credit cards, but some still do accept Debit/Credit Cards.

The reason people aren't posting which sites accept Debit/Credit cards is because we don't want to lose the last few sites that do accept those processing options.

Most of us are actually just trying to help and are definitely not lying.

serious question:

Man I tried 12 different sites and none of them will take my payment.

After sending emergency money to a friend by Western Union a few months ago, I'm pretty sure that in the U.S. no ID is required to be shown if you pay with cash. Although I'd bet that could change if the amount was large enough, or perhaps depending on if the store was particularly law enforcement friendly. But this vs. your credit card (or cash cards, which because of the Patriot Act you will now most likely have to 'activate' for online purchases by giving personal information) are most definitely tied directly to you. So therefore I don't really understand your "not too bright" remark regarding WU or Moneygram.

However some sites (I know Bodog for sure) are currently requiring you to fax or mail in copies of your ID before making a first deposit. I'd guess this probably mainly has to do with weeding out underage players? And if that's your actual concern, maybe you do have a real problem.

Wrong, others have given you the options. But you should have a checking account at a certain bank.

Hey xtrav in your unique situation perhaps you should consider the freeroll steps at mintedpoker. Don't tell anyone but you can work thru the freerolls in a few weeks and stake yourself pretty good 10/20 nl or plo. Good luck bro.

You caught us, everyone in the forum is lying to you because we dont want you at our tables after witnessing the intelligence and superior intellect you have displayed in this thread.

But seriously though, I have a great idea, GFY!! Why would anyone care to help a complete douchebag like you who just called everyone here a liar because of his own ignorance and stupidity not understanding or even being willing to listen when others, trying to help you, stated the reality that credit cards have been mostly fail on gambling sites for years and it has nothing to even do with UIGEA. Gtfo of here!!! Go do something you are more qualified to do like digging a hole with your hands in the backyard tied to a tree. You are too stupid to even post or take simple helpful advice let alone worrying about poker.
