I used to play almost exclusively at Pokerstars.com. I tried partypoker and full tilt, but they just did not have the same presence. About 5 years ago I cashed out when all of the US sites were shut down. After a very long college career my circle of friends has changed and I don't even have anyone to play with, but I'm just dying to play.

There are a few underground poker houses in my area and I can see where they are at now. But what I'm really itching to do is play online. I could get four tourneys going and play in my underwear. Are there any poker sites that are US friendly, or has the gov't permanently shut all of these down for good?
