I don't know the ins and out of the laws just would to interpret what this means. Seems like it just puts them more into the spotlight. If Pokerstars owns the patent now cant they also go after Bovada and push for it? They complied when busted now cant they push the US DOJ to act?
"Gray-market sites, such as Bovada, will also be subject to this patent. However, whether Bovada, which currently offers Zone Poker as their fast-fold poker variant, complies or not is debatable considering they already violate US laws, specifically the UIEGA, and continue to offer unregulated real-money poker to US residents."
