Once signed it will take almost a year for the bill to go into effect , and during this year there is a chance that it can be revised , so for now enjoy your online game , and hope it all works out for us

UPDATES ON GAMBLING BAN - READ PART IN BOLD CAREFULLY

Read part in bold - it might be a small loophole as most players in the usa use 3rd party funding methods - such as neteller or firepay - so if this bill is only blocking banks from making transactions we might still be able to play from neteller or firepay or another 3rd party source . Hope this is the case Most forms of Internet gambling would be banned under a bill that received final U.S. congressional approval early Saturday. The House of Representatives and Senate approved the measure and sent it to President George W. Bush to sign into law. The bill, a compromise between earlier versions passed by the two chambers, would make it illegal for banks and credit card companies to make payments to online gambling sites. Democrats had accused Republicans of pushing the bill to placate its conservative base, particularly the religious right, before the Nov. 7 congressional elections. "It's been over 10 years in the making. The enforcement provisions provided by this bill will g

WELL WERE FUCKED - INTERNET GAMBLING BAN PASSED

WE WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS BUT WE SEEM FUCKED RIGHT NOW House and Senate negotiators reached agreement last night on legislation to tighten maritime and port security regulations and, in a last-minute move, added an unrelated measure that seeks to ban Internet gambling. At the same time, House negotiators prevailed in their fight to strip out $4.5 billion in rail and mass-transit security funds included in the Senate provision. The port security and Internet gambling legislation was headed for passage in both the House and Senate last night, as lawmakers rushed to leave Washington for their fall reelection campaigns. Senate Republican and Democratic leaders announced it would be passed by voice vote after the House's late-night vote. Lawmakers from both parties had been crafting the port security measure for more than a year, but its passage became politically critical after a Middle Eastern government-owned company's purchase of U.S. port operations triggere

Gambling ban ready to pass - lets hope for a miracle and t does not

Congress was pushing on Friday to finish legislation that would boost security at U.S. ports, but at the last minute lawmakers added provisions to prohibit Internet gambling. ADVERTISEMENT Rushing to finish their work by the weekend to go home and campaign for elections in which control of Congress is at stake, lawmakers were linking up unrelated measures in an effort to get them approved. The House passed an Internet gambling ban earlier this summer, but the bill had difficulty moving in the Senate. However it was a priority of Senate Republican Leader Bill Frist of Tennessee, and attaching it to the popular port security bill appeared aimed at insuring its passage. Votes were expected by midnight Friday in both the Senate and the House of Representatives. Port security advanced as an issue in Congress this year after an outcry over the Bush administration's decision to allow an Arab company, Dubai Ports World, to buy major U.S. port assets. House and Senate negotiators agreed l

Leave It to the Experts

There is a very tall, bearded man sitting at a poker table in a casino. He's locked in an intense game of No Limit Texas Hold'em with some very good players. And, unfortunately, he's not exactly dealt the kind of hand that it takes to hang with high caliber players. He has before him an off-suited 7-2, the worst starting hand in poker. Feeling bold though, he actually chooses to raise before the flop prompting everyone except for one person to fold. It is this one person that would stay with him till the end and set the stage for greatness. After a 7-3-3 flop, the man was left with a two pair but an awful kicker. The pressure really comes on after the man's opponent raises him forcing the man to call to stay in with his lousy hand. It's obvious before the turn that the opponent has a big pair and the man's decision to raise is foolish. The turn card reveals a 2 leaving this guy with a two-pair but also one that he knows is ultimately a loser. So, looking at his
