This is what happens when morons on 2+2 can't spend even a minute fighting for poker regulation but can spend all day in a photoshop or durrr thread.

So can we transfer our money to other players. Like a non u.s. living buddy? If that is still the case then transfer funds to those you trust will send you the money. They can recieve the transfer, cash out and then send you a bank check from abroad.

Granted you really have to trust the buddy very much.

Wonder how long before 2+2 and PTP, P5s etc. Get shut down?

I just signed on to FTP, Stars, and AB, and after a software update, all loaded and opened normally. It seems like the sites were prepared with a workaround in the event of a shutdown. (FTP had 102,000 players online at the time I signed in a few minutes ago.)

I am in Florida.

First time in my life that I'm happy to be a microdonk. Grand total lost...two dollars.

On a related note, I'm guessing the local casino games are about to get a lot tougher!
