Will Pokerstars ever allow US players again? If so, when?

I was reading this post. Will it ever be back? Or Should I move to Canada?

Guess when PS will allow US play again. - Page 6 - PokerSchoolOnline Forum

Soon, I hope. I liked their UI a whole lot better than Merge.

I wouldn't expect it until some sort of legislation passes.

Face it brother it won't be anytime soon and with the sour taste that was left in the mouths of the USA players that got taken for their bankrolls. I'm not entirely sure that the percentage of them that would come back would be the worth wild efforts of PS

what? PStars paid there players back very early on.

I think they will within a couple years.

I hope soon because I liked playing on pokerstars.

Yeah i really liked ps their big tourneys were great also lots of foreign donks lol another thing i liked was watching the pros play

i think so too it wud b possible within 2 years mayb sooner but dont think wud take longer than that nehow jus to let u know v.time consuming to play in PS tourneys if u wanna make a decent win or else u spend a lotta time to get a few cents not really the best of freerolls but yea i still like playin on it once in a while always gud to hav more options.

I did not expect this to

Yes, PS paid their players. The only reason for the delay was that the D of J froze the accounts.

Hopefully soon. Pokerstars is the best site to play on. America probably already knows of the revenue potential should they be allowed back in. As for your question, if you can afford to move your life, go for it, but if most of your life is here, like family and friends, then don't. Or, rent a small place in Canada and play there on the weekends for the big tournaments.

i wish..

Am i right in saying its not pokerstars that is not allowing USA players but the American government or something like that? Fulltilt screwed up and loads of people lost money so i think the government wanted to protect people from this happening again. Please let me know if im completely wrong.. But thats my understanding or it from my limited knowledge on this subject.

i think americans are screwed just sayin

they will be allowed, they just need to straighten the taxing system

I don't expect Americans to be able to play Poker on any bigger sites any time soon. Sure americans would jump over each other if Pokerstars comes back for them, but Pokerstars wouldn't want to come back unless she's sure that the DOJ wouldn't be able to screw them over like the last time.

What I do not understand ??
