Poker rooms shutting down?

[mawoyto]

This document I have posted is what all the uproar is about at the affiliate sites. Apparently nearly a dozen different sites have been sent this letter from New Jersey's state Attorney General. Here is the actual document that was scanned and published online: http://www.onlinepokerreport.com/wp-.../05/Letter.pdf

The New Jersey based sites are not doing as well as projected. Ultimate barely has 30 people on its site at noon time, most of which are there for the freeroll. The State is just trying to protect its business. A local paper publishes poker articles which are paid for and supplied by PartyPoker. They recently ran one about why playing on a non-NJ site is bad for you (unregulated, money goes overseas, risk of getting paid, blab blab)

With the defeat of Eric Cantor the chances of that just got better. He was an opponent of on-line gaming. Of course the fact he had close ties to a Las Vegas casino owner had nothing to do with that.

when it is legal all over, all sites such as carbon, acr, bcp, pokerstars, juicy, bovada -- all gone.

new sites will be made. none of the sites mentioned here will have any tables going for the new improved US market.
