2a) I assume you mean Sportsbetting.ag and you can track your play on a CPU. You can find tracking software in the Commercial Software forum.

There are 4 big options for players from the US not located in a state with regulated poker. Those are BetOnline/Sportsbetting.ag, Ignition/Bovada, Global Poker and finally WPN(ACR,True,BCP). These sites are the only ones players located in the US can find good traffic at regularly.
