Will FullTilt be legal for US players again soon?

Yeah, they won't make it Play able to US citizens. It's not even here, while it's allready open. and my god, stars gone downhill, they say that their flops are secured, and theres no, need to worry about, but you can see it all round the tables...action needed site...50% of the time decides the pot turn or the river...

Nope, i dont think it will be anytime soon, but it is definitely a possibility in the near future.

not anytime soon, but near future? hahaha

ive read some articles about how within the next few years there should be progress toward legalization in the US. they have to wait for licensing to be available for them.

Not anytime soon, especially with the election now.

From what I understand, online poker is operating under a grey area. UIGEA has been interpreted in different ways, and some actually support the legality of online poker. However the US government used it to seize what assets they could of the 3 largest sites. However, it appears that while there are a few individuals being charged, the poker sites themselves don't necessarily have enough evidence against them to be charged with illegal activity. Instead of taking the whole thing to trial the us government agreed to not hold the sites accountable for any illegal activity and the poker sites agreed to stay out of the US market until online poker was definitively legal. Most other sites decided it wasn't worth the financial risk to stay in the US market in the unstable environment, but a few have stayed open and are taking the risk of future action from the US government.

it most likely wont comeback to the USA unless the government lets them which is a slim chance.

Ai like pokerstars is the best foor mi

i wish, but no news on allowing USA players yet. When it happens , watch out, if the damn Govt was smart , they would contract it out and take a percent of the rake to tackle the deficit.
