Beginning of the end of online poker

[WSP420]

With Neteller, eChecks, and CentralCoin out of the US market, the end of online poker in America is surely upon us. The US has made it very clear, with the detainment of high ranking Neteller officials, that they have no problem charging them, along with anybody else, with fraud. The rest of the eWallet industry is sure to follow suit. Well, it was fun and I'm glad I made money. Peace.

In response to the US' failure to comply with the WTO's ruling last year, I wish Antigua would refuse to enforce American patents and intellectual property rights. You know that companies like Microsoft and GE would go crazy over the thought of little Antiguans churning out their products and force the UG government to come to some kind of resolution.

looks like the nazi's really did escape from germany in 1945, only they managed to get to washington not buenos aries(sp)...

[Phantaroth]

While I'm all for using nazis to make valid points about politics, this really has little to do with anything... I think it would be more relevant to compare the US government to itself, as it has done things like this since its creation.

I'm sure there is some rule about locking a thread the second someone brings up the Nazis...

[Phantaroth]

It is a bad rule as bringing up Nazis is a valid point in an argument.

[euphoricism]

I wonder why the sites themselves havent set up their own direct finance options, beyond checks. I imagine they will shortly.

[Phantaroth]

Whatever happens, I don't think this is the end of online poker... Perhaps the end of online poker in America, but I imagine it will kinda be like the movie "The Village". We might revert to wood huts and all, but on the other side of the fence everything is back to normal.

It is a bad rule as bringing up Nazis is a valid point in an argument.

"Godwin's Law does not dispute whether, in a particular instance, a reference or comparison to Hitler or the Nazis might be apt. It is precisely because such a reference or comparison may sometimes be appropriate, Godwin has argued, that overuse of the Hitler/Nazi comparison should be avoided, as it robs the valid comparisons of their impact."

my intention was not to bring up the nazis and hitler, may they burn in hell, amen.

It can be the end to online poker whenever you want. All you have to do is stop playing and that will start the end. You should continue to make money because it's still here.

party poker already has IGMpay. Their own deposit method, direct from your bank. Look for sites to do this, and make it easier on the people who don't hide their bankrolls or money. An off shore or different account for those who do may be a better idea.
